Extraction of Extracellular Polymeric Substances (EPS) of Sludges
The efficacies of extracting extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) from aerobic, acidogenic and methanogenic sludges using EDTA, cation exchange resin and formaldehyde under various conditions were compared. Results show that formaldehye plus NaOH was most effective in extracting EPS for all sludges; only 1.1-1.2% of DNA in the sludge samples were ...

Biofilm structure and functionality depend on extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), but analytical methods for EPS often lack specificity which limits progress of biofilm research. EPS were extracted from aerobic granular sludge and analyzed with frequently applied colorimetric methods.

Environmental applications of microbial extracellular polymeric substance (EPS): A review
Journal of Environmental Management, 2021During the last decade, water demand and wastewater generation has increased due to urbanization around the globe which had led to an increase in the utilization of chemicals/synthetic polymers for treating the wastewaters. These synthetic polymers used during the coagulation/flocculation process are non-renewable, non-biodegradable, and have a ...

Bioleaching—A Result of Interfacial Processes Caused by Extracellular Polymeric Substances (EPS)
Hydrometallurgy, 2003Abstract Extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) seem to play a pivotal role in bioleaching—the winning of precious metals as well as acid rock drainage. For a better control of both processes structure and function of extracellular polymeric substances from leaching bacteria are of crucial importance.

Contribution of Extracellular Polymeric Substances (EPS) to the Sludge Aggregation
Environmental Science & Technology, 2010The contribution of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), including loosely bound EPS (LB-EPS) and tightly bound EPS (TB-EPS), to the aggregation of both aerobic and anaerobic sludge is explored using the extended DLVO theory. It is observed that the aggregation abilities of both sludge samples decrease with the extraction of LB-EPS and TB-EPS ...

Overview of microalgal extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and their applications
Biotechnology Advances, 2016Microalgae have been studied as natural resources for a number of applications, most particularly food, animal feed, biofuels, pharmaceuticals, and nutraceuticals. In addition to the intracellular compounds of interest, microalgae can also excrete various extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) into their immediate living environment during their life
