Aim. The purpose of the study was to analyze the global biosurfactant market.

Methods. A bibliometric analysis of scientific publications from databases such as Scopus, Web of Science, DOAJ, and PubMed was conducted to collect information about the microbial surfactant market. A SWOT analysis was conducted to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the biosurfactant market, as well as its opportunities and threats.

Results. It has been shown that the global biosurfactant market reached USD 4.44 billion in 2023 according to various estimates of industry experts. At the same time, its annual growth is predicted on average 5.4–9.1% by 2031. The leader in the global biosurfactant market is Europe with a share of 35%, due to the widespread use of biosurfactants in the composition of detergents, both for industrial and personal use.

Conclusions. The prospects for the biosurfactants market are closely tied to advancements in biomedicine, which will expand their commercial use, as well as efforts to optimize production processes and reduce costs.

Key words: biosurfactants, market study, market segmentation, glycolipids, lipopeptides.
