Putative functions of EpsK in teichuronic acid synthesis and phosphate starvation in Bacillus licheniformis

open access: yesSynthetic and Systems Biotechnology, 2022
Extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs) are extracellular macromolecules in bacteria, which function in cell growth and show potential for mechanism study and biosynthesis application. However, the biosynthesis mechanism of EPS is still not clear.

Extraction of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) from anaerobic granular sludges: comparison of chemical and physical extraction protocols [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
International audienceThe characteristics of the extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) extracted with nine different extraction protocols from four different types of anaerobic granular sludge were studied. The efficiency of four physical (sonication,

The impact of microbial extracellular polymeric substances on sediment stability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The main objective of this thesis is to investigate the impact of microbial extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) on sediment stability and the related factors which influence “biogenic stabilisation” as a basis to the prediction of sediment erosion

Correlation between the Extracellular polymeric substances production and hydrophobicity of selected isolates.

open access: yes, 2023
The release of extracellular polymeric substance and relative hydrophobicity of the clinical isolates after 24 hours of incubation is shown in the figure above. A positive correlation can be observed between most strains. Strain 647 showed no tendency to

The pervasive role of biological cohesion in bedform development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Sediment fluxes in aquatic environments are crucially dependent on bedform dynamics. However, sediment-flux predictions rely almost completely on clean-sand studies, despite most environments being composed of mixtures of non-cohesive sands, physically ...

Utilization Potency of Extracellular Polymeric Substance as Industrials Biosorbent And Ion Exchange Resin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Industrial contaminant cations and anions can be removed from water and or waste water by using ion exchange resin. Extracellular Polymeric Substances (EPS) resulting from bacteria can accumulate the elements ions from its external environment by ...

Assembly and development of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm matrix. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2009
Virtually all cells living in multicellular structures such as tissues and organs are encased in an extracellular matrix. One of the most important features of a biofilm is the extracellular polymeric substance that functions as a matrix, holding ...
