Abstract

Biosurfactants, naturally produced by plants and microorganisms, closely mimic synthetic surfactants in physiochemical properties, making them valuable alternatives in various applications. They serve as antimicrobial agents and play a crucial role in immune regulations. These compounds find wide use in industries like food processing, biodegradation, pharmaceuticals, and naturally present in the skin, brain, lungs, and gut, maintaining membrane permeability for organ health. This review outlines the basic characteristics and classes of biosurfactants (glycolipids, lipopeptides, phospholipids, and glycoproteins) and explores their biomedical importance, emphasizing their anti-adhesive, antimicrobial, and immune-modulating properties. This review aimed to provide outline the fundamental characteristics of biosurfactants and deliver a brief overview of their different classes, including glycolipids, lipopeptides, phospholipids, and glycoproteins. Furthermore, this review also explore their biomedical significance, highlighting their anti-adhesive, antimicrobial, and immune-modulating properties.

生物表面活性剂的前沿视角：对抗菌和生物医学应用的影响。

由植物和微生物天然产生的生物表面活性剂在理化性质上与合成表面活性剂非常相似，因此在各种应用中都是有价值的替代品。它们是抗菌剂，在免疫调节中发挥着重要作用。这些化合物广泛应用于食品加工、生物降解、制药等行业，并天然存在于皮肤、大脑、肺部和肠道中，保持膜的渗透性，促进器官健康。这篇综述概述了生物表面活性剂（糖脂、脂肽、磷脂和糖蛋白）的基本特征和类别，并探讨了它们在生物医学方面的重要性，强调了它们的抗粘附、抗菌和免疫调节特性。本综述旨在概述生物表面活性剂的基本特征，并简要介绍其不同类别，包括糖脂、脂肽、磷脂和糖蛋白。此外，这篇综述还探讨了生物表面活性剂的生物医学意义，强调了它们的抗粘性、抗菌性和免疫调节特性。
