Isolation of Exopolysaccharide-Producing Yeast and Lactic Acid Bacteria from Quinoa (Chenopodium Quinoa) Sourdough Fermentation

Foods, 2020
Quinoa, a nutritional grain, can be used as an ingredient in gluten-free sourdoughs. This study characterizes quinoa flour spontaneous fermentation with emphasis in the isolation of exopolysaccharide (EPS) producer bacteria.

Exopolysaccharide from Cryptococcus heimaeyensis S20 induces autophagic cell death in non‐small cell lung cancer cells via ROS/p38 and ROS/ERK signalling

Cell Proliferation, 2020
Cryptococcus heimaeyensis S20 is found in Antarctica and can produce exopolysaccharides (CHEPS). Here, we explore the anti‐tumour effects of CHEPS on non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Production, Characterization and Immunomodulatory Activity of an Extracellular Polysaccharide from Rhodotorula mucilaginosa YL-1 Isolated from Sea Salt Field

Marine Drugs, 2020
A novel exopolysaccharide from marine-derived red yeast Rhodotorula mucilaginosa strain YL-1 was produced and characterized. The highest yield of polysaccharide reached 15.1 g/L after medium and culture parameter optimization.

Exopolysaccharides Producing Bacteria: A Review

Microorganisms, 2023
Bacterial exopolysaccharides (EPS) are essential natural biopolymers used in different areas including biomedicine, food, cosmetic, petroleum, and pharmaceuticals and also in environmental remediation. The interest in them is primarily due to their unique structure and properties such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, higher purity, hydrophilic ...

The effects of exopolysaccharides and exopolysaccharide-producing Lactobacillus on the intestinal microbiome of zebrafish (Danio rerio)

BMC Microbiology, 2020
Numerous studies have reported the health-promoting effects of exopolysaccharides (EPSs) in in vitro models; however, a functional evaluation of EPSs will provide additional knowledge of EPS-microbe interactions by in vivo intestinal microbial model.

Bacterial Exopolysaccharides: Functionality and Prospects [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2012
Diverse structural, functional and valuable polysaccharides are synthesized by bacteria of all taxa and secreted into the external environment. These polysaccharides are referred to as exopolysaccharides and they may either be homopolymeric or heteropolymeric in composition and of diverse high molecular weights (10 to 1000 kDa). The material properties
