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

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.

Exopolysaccharides Derived from Probiotic Bacteria and their Health Benefits [PDF]

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2023
Probiotic bacteria are producers of secretory products such as bacteriocins and polysaccharides. Both homopolymeric and heteropolymeric exopolysaccharides (EPS) present on the surface of microorganisms have shown beneficial properties.

The Role of Exopolysaccharides in Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) is an effective mechanism for microbial species to exchange electrons cooperatively during syntrophic metabolism. It is generally accepted that DIET is mainly mediated by electrically conductive pili and outer

Priority changes between biofilm exopolysaccharides synthesis and rhamnolipids production are mediated by a c-di-GMP-specific phosphodiesterase NbdA in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

iScience, 2022
Summary: The synthesis of biofilm exopolysaccharides and rhamnolipids (RLs) are two interrelated processes in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, but how bacteria coordinate these two processes remains unclear. We collected a P.
