Astonishing diversity of natural surfactants: 4. Fatty acid amide glycosides, their analogs and derivatives

Valery M Dembitsky. Lipids. 2005 Jul.

Abstract

FA amide glycosides are of great interest, especially for the medicinal and pharmaceutical industries. These biologically active natural surfactants are good prospects for future chemical preparation of compounds useful as antibiotics, anticancer agents, or for industry. More than 200 unusual and interesting natural surfactants, including their chemical structures and biological activities, are described in this review article.
