Bacterial extracellular polysaccharides [PDF]

open access: possibleCanadian Journal of Microbiology, 1988
The synthesis of extracellular polysaccharides has been recognized in certain bacterial cultures since the 1880s. It is now apparent that a wide range of bacteria produce these polymers and an equally wide range of chemical structures are possible.

Bacterial Polysaccharides: An Overview [PDF]

open access: possible, 2014
Bacterial cell wall and membrane are associated with a variety of glycoconjugates and polysaccharides which aids in structural formation as well as performing various functions in the bacterial cell. In gram-negative bacteria, peptidoglycan is majorly present in the periplasmic space and it provides mechanical strength as well as shape to the cell.

Bacterial Extracellular Polysaccharides

2011
Extracellular polysaccharides are as structurally and functionally diverse as the bacteria that synthesise them. They can be present in many forms, including cell-bound capsular polysaccharides, unbound "slime", and as O-antigen component of lipopolysaccharide, with an equally wide range of biological functions. These include resistance to desiccation,

Adsorption of Bacterial Polysaccharides to Erythrocytes

Nature, 1948
WE recently reported that saline extracts of smooth strains of Haemophilus influenzae (Type b) contain a substance adsorbable to erythrocytes1. Cells treated with such extracts are agglutinated by type-specific antisera. A sample of the type-specific polysaccharide, prepared by the method of Dingle and Fothergill2, absorbed from immune sera their power

Function of Bacterial Polysaccharides in the Soil

Nature, 1946
MOST aerobic micro-organisms such as B. subtilis, B. megatherium, Leuconostoc species, Rhizobia, etc., are capable under favourable cultural conditions of producing highly viscous polysaccharides either as heavy capsular material or as extracellular products.
