RESUMEN
It is of fundamental interest to research and develop innovative biotechnologies, as well as bioproducts that replace or are alternatives to those of non-renewable origin, such as biosurfactants in relation to traditional surfactants used in various sectors. Consequently, there are a large number of experimental studies addressing different subjects, especially with the use of bacteria of the genus Pseudomonas; however, there is a lack of work that demonstrates the evaluation of this science produced to date. Therefore, this article discusses the production of biosurfactants by Pseudomonas with the aim of surveying and analyzing experimental articles on this topic. To realize this, a systematic search was carried out with well-defined temporal space, databases, and inclusion and exclusion criteria, based on metric studies that guided what information would be collected and the method of evaluation. Therefore, a large number of articles were selected, which demonstrated Pseudomonas aeruginosa as the bioagent mostly used in the tests, which aimed to improve the process in the area. Furthermore, interest in this field has increased over the years, predominantly in emerging market countries, where the most prominent authors on the topic are found. Therefore, it is necessary that there is an expansion of interest in the area to make the production of biosurfactants cheaper in areas that currently have greater development deficiencies, such as means of purifying the bioprocess and reducing foam formation in the bioprocess.
