Surfactin
Surfactin is a cyclic lipopeptide biosurfactant that facilitates the transmembrane transport of cations like calcium. It is widely used in research for its membrane-disrupting properties, applied in studies of antimicrobial mechanisms, hemolysis, and membrane biophysics in both in vitro and in vivo experimental models.
