Background and Objectives: Biosurfactants are amphiphilic surface-active agents that mainly produced by various microorganisms. In this study, the anti-biofilm and inhibition of bacterial adhesion activities of two bacterial biosurfactants were investigated. Materials and Methods: After extraction and evaluation of Bacillus cereus and Serratia nematodiphila biosurfctants, inhibition of bacterial adhesion and anti-biofilm effects of them on Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were determined. Results: On average, the synergistic effect of two bacterial biosurfactants, caused about 60% decrease in adhesion and about 80% decrease in biofilm formation of S. aureus and P. aeruginosa. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that combination of B. cereus and S. nematodiphila biosurfactants would increase the potential of attachment inhibition and biofilm eradication with very low toxicity.
