The review represents the data concerning state and perspective of development of surfaceactive substances (SAS) commercial production. Now the high prime cost of microbial SAS is conditioned by large costs on their biosynthesis, recovery and purification of base product and also low yields in production processes. The investigations directed on decision of these problems are key and priority in biotechnology of microbial SAS. The efficiency of microbial SAS technologies can be higher due to using of cheaper raw materials as growth substrates, optimization of cultivation conditions, addition into medium of biosynthesis of precursors and development of economically rational methods of SAS recovery and obtain hyper-producing strains including recombinant microorganisms.
Key words: surfactant species, biosynthesis technolo gy, productive efficiency, factory waste, cultivation conditions, microorganisms producers, isolation of desired product.
