Submerged cultures were used to study the influence of various carbon sources on the mycelial biomass and exopolysaccharide production of Pleurotus ostreatus. The antimicrobial and antioxidant activity of the exopolysaccharide were also determined.

Modulation of biofilm exopolysaccharides by the Streptococcus mutans vicX gene
The cariogenic pathogen Streptococcus mutans effectively utilizes dietary sucrose for the synthesis of exopolysaccharide, which act as a scaffold for its biofilm, thus contributing to its pathogenicity, environmental stress tolerance, and antimicrobial ...

Biosynthesis of exopolysaccharide by Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
In batch cultures of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, the maximum rate of exopolysaccharide synthesis occurred during exponential growth. In nitrogen-limited continuous culture, the specific rate of exopolysaccharide synthesis increased from 0.27 g g of cell-1 h-1 at a dilution rate (D) of 0.05 h-1 to 0.44 g g of cells h-1 at D=0.1 H-1.

Optimizing feather hydrolysate via machine learning for microbial recycling of waste concrete fines
Abstract BACKGROUND The concrete industry faces significant challenges from CO2 emissions and the disposal of waste concrete fines (WCF). Microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) can bind WCF into bioconcrete, but the high cost of commercial culture media hinders its application.

Exopolysaccharide Quantification for the Plant Pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum
Soluble exopolysaccharide is a major virulence factor produced by the plant pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum. Its massive production during plant infection is associated with the arrest of water flow in xylem vessels leading eventually to plant death. The

Privatization of Biofilm Matrix in Structurally Heterogeneous Biofilms
The self-produced biofilm provides beneficial protection for the enclosed cells, but the costly production of matrix components makes producer cells susceptible to cheating by nonproducing individuals.

Abstract BACKGROUND An essential aspect of applying Purple Phototrophic Bacteria (PPB) technology for wastewater treatment is the biomass separation from the aqueous phase. Ca2+ and Mg2+ have been used to enhance the aggregation of different biological matrices. In this paper, the effect of Ca2+ and Mg2+ on the aggregation of a mixed culture of PPB was
