<br/><br/> Biosurfactants are generally microbial metabolites with the typical amphiphilic stucture of a chemical surfactant . The biosurfactant may enhance biodegradation of the hydrophobic petroleum oil either by emulsification or solublization or both . In the present study the main target was to synthesize biosurfactants by utilizing some microbial strains
