Liamocins, a group of high-density glycolipids, are only produced by certain strains of the yeast-like fungi in the genus Aureobasidium. Until now, few studies have focused on the surfactant properties of liamocins produced from the highly diverse tropical strains of Aureobasidium. Therefore, the aims of this research were to screen the liamocin production from tropical strains of Aureobasidium spp.
