Antioxidant Activities of an Exopolysaccharide (DeinoPol) Produced by the Extreme Radiation-Resistant Bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans

Scientific Reports, 2020
Deinococcus radiodurans shows extreme resistance to a range of remarkable environmental stresses. Deinococcal exopolysaccharide (DeinoPol) is a component of the cell wall, but its role in stress resistance has not yet been well-described.

Elevated exopolysaccharide levels in Pseudomonas aeruginosa flagellar mutants have implications for biofilm growth and chronic infections

PLoS Genetics, 2020
Pseudomonas aeruginosa colonizes the airways of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients, causing infections that can last for decades. During the course of these infections, P. aeruginosa undergoes a number of genetic adaptations.

Analysis of Exopolysaccharides in Lactobacillus casei group Probiotics from Human Breast Milk

Indonesian Journal of Medical Laboratory Science and Technology, 2023
Exopolysaccharides get a lot of attention because they can improve the host immune system. Exopolysaccharide is a polysaccharide that is produced and secreted from microbes outside the cell, usually found on the outside of the bacterial structure.
