This project focuses on engineering the yeast Candida bombicola to produce innovative biosurfactants with diverse structures. By enhancing the metabolic pathways, the project aims to create sustainable alternatives to conventional surfactants for various applications, including cleaning, cosmetics, and medicine.
This project aims to create new-to-nature and tailor-made biosurfactants through metabolic engineering of the unconventional yeast Candida bombicola.
Biosurfactants produced by fermentation offer a worthy alternative to traditional surfactants, which are typically derived from non-renewable petrochemical resources and may cause environmental problems due to their ecotoxicity and poor biodegradability.
Despite the clear advantages of biosurfactants, their overall use is hampered by the lack of st…
