Title: Properties of an extracellular polysaccharide produced by a strain of enterobacter isolated from pond water. Author: Isobe Y, Matsumoto Y, Yokoigawa K, Kawai H. Journal: Biosci Biotechnol Biochem; 2001 Jun; 65(6):1399-401. PubMed ID: 11471742. Abstract: A bacterium which was isolated from pond water and identified as Enterobacter cloacae produced a viscous extracellular polysaccharide when it was grown aerobically in a medium containing sucrose as a sole source of carbon. The maximum molecular weight of the polysaccharide was about 9.0 x 10(5). The polysaccharide was composed of fucose, galactose, glucose, and glucuronic acid in a molar ratio of 2:3:2:1, but the molecular weight and the molar ratio of the sugar component were different from those of the polysaccharide produced by the same species reported elsewhere.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
