Comparative Genomics of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum: Insights Into Probiotic Markers in Strains Isolated From the Human Gastrointestinal Tract and Fermented Foods. Front Microbiol 2022; 13:854266. [PMID: 35663852 PMCID: PMC9159523 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.854266] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2022] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Lactiplantibacillus (Lpb.) plantarum is a versatile species commonly found in a wide variety of ecological niches including dairy products and vegetables, while it may also occur as a natural inhabitant of the human gastrointestinal tract. Although Lpb. plantarum strains have been suggested to exert beneficial properties on their host, the precise mechanisms underlying these microbe–host interactions are still obscure. In this context, the genome-scale in silico analysis of putative probiotic bacteria represents a bottom–up approach to identify probiotic biomarkers, predict desirable functional properties, and identify potentially detrimental antibiotic resistance genes. In this study, we characterized the bacterial genomes of three Lpb. plantarum strains isolated from three distinct environments [strain IMC513 (from the human GIT), C904 (from table olives), and LT52 (from raw-milk cheese)]. A whole-genome sequencing was performed combining Illumina short reads with Oxford Nanopore long reads. The phylogenomic analyses suggested the highest relatedness between IMC513 and C904 strains which were both clade 4 strains, with LT52 positioned within clade 5 within the Lpb. plantarum species. The comparative genome analysis performed across several Lpb. plantarum representatives highlighted the genes involved in the key metabolic pathways as well as those encoding potential probiotic features in these new isolates. In particular, our strains varied significantly in genes encoding exopolysaccharide biosynthesis and in contrast to strains IMC513 and C904, the LT52 strain does not encode a Mannose-binding adhesion protein. The LT52 strain is also deficient in genes encoding complete pentose phosphate and the Embden–Meyerhof pathways. Finally, analyses using the CARD and ResFinder databases revealed that none of the strains encode known antibiotic resistance loci. Ultimately, the results provide better insights into the probiotic potential and safety of these three strains and indicate avenues for further mechanistic studies using these isolates.

Abstract
This study evaluated the effects of probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum MC5 on the quality, antioxidant activity, and storage stability of yogurt, to determine its possible application as a starter in milk fermentation. Four groups of yogurt were made with different proportions of probiotic L. plantarum MC5 and commercial starters. The yogurt samples’ rheological properties, texture properties, antioxidant activity, storage stability, and exopolysaccharides (EPS) content during storage were determined. The results showed that 2:1 and 1:1 yogurt samples (supplemented with L. plantarum MC5) attained the highest EPS content (982.42 mg/L and 751.71 mg/L) during storage. The apparent viscosity, consistency, cohesiveness, and water holding capacity (WHC) of yogurt samples supplemented with L. plantarum MC5 were significantly higher than those of the control group (p < 0.05). Further evaluation of antioxidant activity revealed that yogurt samples containing MC5 starter significantly increased in DPPH, ABTS, OH, and ferric iron-reducing power. The study also found that adding MC5 can promote the growth of Streptococcus thermophilus. Therefore, yogurt containing L. plantarum MC5 had favorable rheological properties, texture, and health effects. The probiotic MC5 usage in milk fermentation showed adequate potential for industrial application.

Abstract
EPS producing bacteria was isolated and identified as Leuconostoc mesenteroides SL and Enterococcus viikkiensis N5. Optimization was carried out by Response Surface Methodology using Box Behnken Design. The GC–MS, FTIR, and NMR analysis showed that the EPS-SL and EPS-N5 are heteropolysaccharides connected by α-(1 → 6) and -(1 → 3) linkages. Both EPSs has high thermal stability. EPS exhibited appreciable antibacterial and antioxidant activity.
Two exopolysaccharides (EPS) producing strains, isolated from raw donkey milk were identified as Leuconostoc mesenteroides SL and Enterococcus viikkiensis N5 using 16S rDNA sequencing. The Box Benheken design exhibited the highest yield of EPS-SL (672.342 mg/L) produced by SL and of EPS-N5 (901 mg/L) produced by N5. The molecular weight was 1.68×104 for EPS-SL and 1.55×104 Da for EPS-N5. FTIR, NMR and GC–MS analysis showed that the EPS are heteropolysaccharides. The SEM image showed that the EPS-SL was smooth and represented a lotus leaf shape and EPS-N5 revealed a stiff-like, porous appearance and was more compact than EPS-SL. The TGA analyses showed high thermal stability and degradation temperature. Additionally, the two EPSs possessed antibacterial and antioxidant activity, and the EPS-SL had the stronger antioxidant activity. Consequently, these results suggest that the functional and biological properties of EPS-SL and EPS-N5 imply the potential application in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
An exopolysaccharide, designated as MM89-EPS, was isolated from Lactiplantibacillus plantarum MM89. It was comprised of glucose and mannose molecules with an average molecular weight of 138 kDa. FTIR and NMR spectra showed that MM89-EPS had characteristic polysaccharide functional groups. MM89-EPS displayed excellent water solubility and capacities to retain water and oil due to its porous structure. MM89-EPS exhibited no significant cytotoxicity on RAW264.7 cells and showed strong immunomodulatory activity by increasing phagocytosis, acid phosphatase activity, and cytokine production in RAW264.7 cells. Furthermore, an in vivo study revealed that splenic indices, intestinal IgA levels, serum cytokine levels, and lymphocyte proliferation were increased in an MM89-EPS-treated cyclophosphamide-induced immunosuppressed mouse model. To summarize, our results indicate that MM89-EPS can efficiently enhance the immunostimulatory activity of immune cells and an immunosuppressed mouse model. Hence, MM89-EPS may be use as a potential source of immunomodulatory agent in various food products.

Abstract
Sugarcane molasses is an agricultural by-product containing sucrose. In this study, the exopolysaccharide (M-EPS) produced by Leuconostoc citreum B-2 in molasses-based medium was characterized, optimized, and its application in set yogurt was investigated. The structure analysis, including gel permeation chromatography, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance, revealed that the M-EPS was a linear dextran composed of D-glucose units, which were linked by α-(1→6) glycosidic bonds with 19.3% α-(1→3) branches. The M-EPS showed a lower molecular weight than that produced from sucrose. The M-EPS was added into the set yogurt, and then the water holding capacity, pH, and microstructure of set yogurt were evaluated. Compared with the controls, the addition of M-EPS improved the water holding capacity and reduced the pH of set yogurt. Meanwhile, the structure of the three-dimensional network was also observed in the set yogurt containing M-EPS, indicating that M-EPS had a positive effect on the stability of set yogurt. The results provide a theoretical basis for the cost-effective utilization of sugarcane molasses.

Abstract
An EPS produced by Weissella confusa H2 was purified through Sephadex G-100, and the preliminary structure characteristics and biological activities of H2 EPS were analyzed. Molecular mass of purified H2 EPS was 2.705 × 106 Da as measured with gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Composition of monosaccharides, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy spectroscopy and fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) showed that the EPS was a linear homopolysaccharide, mainly constituted of glucose and it is suggested that the EPS was dextran with α-(1 → 6) glycosidic bonds and a few α-(1 → 3) branches. Atomic force micrograph (AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis of dextran further revealed sheets branched microstructure anchored with many irregular protuberances in aqueous solution. The XRD pattern reflected non-crystalline amorphous nature. In addition, the solubility, water-holding capacity, thermal property, rheological property and heavy metal chelating activity of the purified H2 dextran were determined. The dissolution percentage and water holding capacity of the dextran were 98.78 ± 1.37% and 426.03 ± 7.26%, respectively. The dextran exhibited good hydrophilicity, thermal stability and heavy metal chelating activity. Rheological studies exhibited rotational speed, pH, temperature, metal ions solutions dependent semiviscous nature. These results support its use as an additive in the food and environmental protection fields.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects of fermentation time (17-48 h) and pH (3.37-4.50) on qualities of fermented beverages (FBs) produced from black carrot juice (BCJ) were monitored during storage at 4 °C for 20 weeks. RESULTS Fermentation and adjusting the pH level provided significant increases (up to 22%) in anthocyanin content and the absorbance value at λmax (Amax ). Moreover, the stability of anthocyanins, color density, and Amax in FBs was somewhat higher than those in BCJ. Lactic acid showed a co-pigmentation effect on cyanidin-3-galactoside-xyloside-glucoside-sinapic acid and cyanidin-3-galactoside-xyloside-glucoside-ferulic acid. Sucrose was degraded much faster at pH 4.50 (17 h) and 4.35 (48 h) than at lower pH levels. During storage, pH 4.35 caused a balanced distribution between counts of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and yeasts, and antioxidant activity of all FBs increased. Fermented beverages at 4.35 and 3.90 were found to be more palatable by panelists. CONCLUSION We recommend FB production at pH 4.35 after 48 h fermentation due to the balanced distribution of probiotics, high color enhancement, and consumer preference. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
An exopolysaccharide (EPS) was purified from the probiotic bacterium Bacillus albus DM-15, isolated from the Indian Ayurvedic traditional medicine Dasamoolarishta. Gas chromatography-mass spectrophotometry and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses revealed the heteropolymeric nature of the purified EPS with monosaccharide units of glucose, galactose, xylose, and rhamnose. Size-exclusion chromatography had shown the molecular weight of the purified EPS as around 240 kDa. X-ray powder diffraction analysis confirmed the non-crystalline amorphous nature of the EPS. Furthermore, the purified EPS showed the maximum flocculation activity (72.80%) with kaolin clay and emulsification activity (67.04%) with xylene. In addition, the EPS exhibits significant antioxidant activities on DPPH (58.17 ± 0.054%), ABTS (70.47 ± 0.854%) and nitric oxide (58.92 ± 0.744%) radicals in a concentration-dependent way. Moreover, the EPS showed promising cytotoxic activity (20 ± 0.97 μg mL–1) against the lung carcinoma cells (A549), and subsequent cellular staining revealed apoptotic necrotic characters in damaged A549 cells. The EPS purified from the probiotic strain B. albus DM-15 can be further studied and exploited as a potential carbohydrate polymer in food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and biomedical applications.

Abstract
Exopolysaccharides (EPS) are extracellular sugar metabolites/polymers of some slim microorganisms and, a wide variety of probiotics have been broadly investigated for their ability to produce EPS. EPS originated from probiotics have potential applications in food, pharmaceutical, cosmetology, wastewater treatment, and textiles industries, nevertheless slight is recognized about their function. The present review purposes to comprehensively discuss the structure, classification, biosynthesis, extraction, purification, sources, health-promoting properties, techno-functional benefits, application in the food industry, safety, toxicology, analysis, and characterization methods of EPS originated from probiotic microorganisms. Various studies have shown that probiotic EPS used as stabilizers, emulsifiers, gelling agents, viscosifiers, and prebiotics can alter the nutritional, texture, and rheological characteristics of food and beverages and play a major role in improving the quality of these products. Numerous studies have also proven the beneficial health effects of probiotic EPS, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, anticancer, antidiabetic, antibiofilm, antiulcer, and antitoxin activities. Although the use of probiotic EPS has health effects and improves the organoleptic and textural properties of food and pharmaceutical products and there is a high tendency for their use in related industries, the production yield of these products is low and requires basic studies to support their products in large scale.

In situ exopolysaccharides produced by Lactobacillus helveticus MB2-1 and its effect on gel properties of Sayram ketteki yoghurt. Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 208:314-323. [PMID: 35278514 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.03.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2021] [Revised: 03/02/2022] [Accepted: 03/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
In order to study the mechanism of high viscosity of Sayram ketteki yoghurt, the growth, acidification properties, in situ exopolysaccharides (EPS) production of Lactobacillus helveticus MB2-1 in milk medium were investigated. The microstructure of the yoghurt was analyzed. The characteristics of in situ EPS produced by this strain in yoghurt were studied by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) analysis. The amount of in situ EPS produced could be up to 689.47 mg/L. The micrographs of Sayram ketteki yoghurt demonstrated that the in situ EPS secreted by ropy L. helveticus MB2-1 were closely connected with proteins, effectively filling the three-dimensional network structure of casein clusters, thereby resulting in high viscosity of yoghurt. Besides, the molecular weight of in situ EPS was 9.34 × 104 Da, and the in situ EPS was determined to be a new heteropolysaccharide, containing fucose, which made it unique. Moreover, the set yoghurts added with in situ EPS were demonstrated fine effects on the texture improvement. These results illustrated that L. helveticus MB2-1 could be set as a good starter and the in situ EPS could be considered as a probiotic stabilizer substitute for fermented dairy products.

Abstract
In this study, structural and techno-functional characteristics of an exopolysaccharide (EPS) produced by Lactobacillus kunkeei AK1 were determined. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis demonstrated that EPS AK1 was composed of only glucose units. 1H and 13C Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis revealed that EPS AK1 was a dextran type EPS containing 4.78% (1 → 4)-linked α-d-glucose branches. The molecular weight of EPS AK1 was determined to be 45 kDa by Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) analysis. A high level of thermal stability up to 280 °C was determined for dextran AK1 detected by Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Dextran AK1 appeared as regular spheres with compact morphology and as irregular particles in the solution with no clear cross-linking between the chains of the polysaccharide observed by Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Atomic force microscopy (AFM) analysis, respectively. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) analysis demonstrated that dextran AK1 had a crystalline structure. A relatively strong antioxidant activity was observed for dextran AK1 determined by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2'-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging and cupric reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC) tests. Finally, only a digestion ratio of 3.1% was observed for dextran AK1 following the in vitro simulated gastric digestion test.

Abstract
Exopolysaccharides (EPSs) from lactic acid bacteria have special functions and complex structures, but the function and structure of EPSs of the important dairy starter, Lactococcus (L.) lactis subsp. lactis, are less known. This study investigated the cytotoxicity, antioxidant capacities, rheological characteristics, chemical structure and expression of biosynthetic genes of EPSs of the L. lactis subsp. lactis IMAU11823. The EPSs showed strong reducing power and no cytotoxicity. EPS-1 comprised glucose and mannose (molar ratio of 7.01: 1.00) and molecular weight was 6.10 × 105 Da, while EPS-2 comprised mannose, glucose and rhamnose (7.45: 1.00: 2.34) and molecular weight was 2.93 × 105 Da. EPS-1 was a linear structure comprised two sugar residues, while EPS-2 was more complex, non-linear, and comprised eight sugar residues. In additions, our study proposed an EPS biosynthesis model for the IMAU11823 strain. The current findings have broadened the understanding of the formation, structure and function of complex EPSs of IMAU11823.

Abstract
Probiotics and their fermentation products are increasingly been focused on due to their health-boosting effects. Exopolysaccharides (EPS) synthetized by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are widely applied as texture modifiers in dairy, meat and bakery products owning to their improved properties. Moreover, LAB-derived EPS have been confirmed to possess diverse physiological bioactivities including antioxidant, anti-biofilm, antiviral, immune-regulatory or antitumor. However, the low production and high acquisition cost hinder their development. Even though LAB-derived EPS have been extensively studied for their production-improving, there are only few reports on the systematic elucidation and summary of the relationship among biosynthesis pathway, strain selection, production parameter, structure-function relationship. Therefore, a detailed summary on biosynthesis pathway, production parameter and structure-function relationship of LAB-derived EPS is provided in this review, the structural modifications together with the current and potential applications are also discussed in this paper.

Abstract
The production of exopolysaccharides (EPS) by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) has attracted particular interest in the food industry. EPS can be considered as natural biothickeners as they are produced in situ by LAB and improve the rheological properties of fermented foods. Moreover, much research has been conducted on the beneficial effects of EPS produced by LAB on modulating the gut microbiome and promoting health. The EPS, which varies widely in composition and structure, may have diverse health effects, such as glycemic control, calcium and magnesium absorption, cholesterol-lowering, anticarcinogenic, immunomodulatory, and antioxidant effects. In this article, the latest advances on structure, biosynthesis, and physicochemical properties of LAB-derived EPS are described in detail. This is followed by a summary of up-to-date methods used to detect, characterize and elucidate the structure of EPS produced by LAB. In addition, current strategies on the use of LAB-produced EPS in food products have been discussed, focusing on beneficial applications in dairy products, gluten-free bakery products, and low-fat meat products, as they positively influence the consistency, stability, and quality of the final product. Highlighting is also placed on reports of health-promoting effects, with particular emphasis on prebiotic, immunomodulatory, antioxidant, cholesterol-lowering, anti-biofilm, antimicrobial, anticancer, and drug-delivery activities.

Abstract
Winemaking is a complex process involving two successive fermentations: alcoholic fermentation, by yeasts, and malolactic fermentation (MLF), by lactic acid bacteria (LAB). During MLF, LAB can contribute positively to wine flavor through decarboxylation of malic acid with acidity reduction and other numerous enzymatic reactions. However, some microorganisms can have a negative impact on the quality of the wine through processes such as biogenic amine production. For these reasons, monitoring the bacterial community profiles during MLF can predict and control the quality of the final product. In addition, the selection of LAB from a wine-producing area is necessary for the formulation of native malolactic starter cultures well adapted to local winemaking practices and able to enhance the regional wine typicality. In this sense, molecular biology techniques are fundamental tools to decipher the native microbiome involved in MLF and to select bacterial strains with potential to function as starter cultures, given their enological and technological characteristics. In this context, this work reviews the different molecular tools (both culture-dependent and -independent) that can be applied to the study of MLF, either in bacterial isolates or in the microbial community of wine, and of its dynamics during the process.

Abstract
Microbial exopolysaccharides (EPSs) extracted from lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are generally recognized as safe. They have earned popularity in recent years because of their exceptional biological features. Therefore, the present study main focus was to study EPS-production from probiotic LAB and to investigate their antioxidant and burn wound healing efficacy. Seventeen LAB were isolated from different food samples. All of them showed EPS-producing abilities ranging from 1.75 ± 0.05 to 4.32 ± 0.12 g/l. RO30 isolate (from Romi cheese) was chosen, due to its ability to produce the highest EPS yield (4.23 ± 0.12 g/l). The 16S rDNA sequencing showed it belonged to the Lactiplantibacillus plantarum group and was further identified as L. plantarum RO30 with accession number OL757866. It displayed well in vitro probiotic properties. REPS was extracted and characterized. The existence of COO−, OH and amide groups corresponding to typical EPSs was confirmed via FTIR. It was constituted of glucuronic acid, mannose, glucose, and arabinose in a molar ratio of 2.2:0.1:0.5:0.1, respectively. The average molecular weight was 4.96 × 104 g/mol. In vitro antioxidant assays showed that the REPS possesses a DPPH radical scavenging ability of 43.60% at 5 mg/ml, reducing power of 1.108 at 10 mg/ml, and iron chelation activity of 72.49% and 89.78% at 5 mg/ml and 10 mg/ml, respectively. The healing efficacy of REPS on burn wound models in albino Wistar rats showed that REPS at 0.5% (w/w) concentration stimulated the process of healing in burn areas. The results suggested that REPS might be useful as a burn wound healing agent.

Abstract
Lactic acid fermentation of fresh fruit juices is a low-cost and sustainable process, that aims to preserve and even enhance the organoleptic and nutritional features of the raw matrices and extend their shelf life. Selected Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) were evaluated in the fermentation of various fruit juices, leading in some cases to fruit beverages, with enhanced nutritional and sensorial characteristics. Among LAB, Lactiplantibacillus (Lpb.) plantarum subsp. plantarum strains are quite interesting, regarding their application in the fermentation of a broad range of plant-derived substrates, such as vegetables and fruit juices, since they have genome plasticity and high versatility and flexibility. L. plantarum exhibits a remarkable portfolio of enzymes that make it very important and multi-functional in fruit juice fermentations. Therefore, L. plantarum has the potential for the production of various bioactive compounds, which enhance the nutritional value and the shelf life of the final product. In addition, L. plantarum can positively modify the flavor of fruit juices, leading to higher content of desirable volatile compounds. All these features are sought in the frame of this review, aiming at the potential and challenges of L. plantarum applications in the fermentation of fruit juices.

Abstract
Streptococcus thermophilus CS6 could produce the high exopolysaccharide (EPS) level in optimized skimmed milk medium. However, physicochemical properties and structure of these polymers have not been fully characterized. In this study, two purified fractions (EPS-M1 and EPS-M2) exhibited good rheology, thermostability and antioxidant activity. Further monosaccharide composition, molecular weight and NMR analysis indicated EPS-M2 was composed of galactose, arabinose and glucose (5:2.5:1) with an average molecular weight of 2.22 × 104 Da and its suggested repeating unit was →6)-[α-L-Araf-(1 → 3)]-β-D-Galp-(1 → 4)-β-D-Galp-(1 → 6)-[α-L-Araf-(1 → 5)-{α-L-Araf-(1 → 3)}-α-L-Araf-(1 → 3)]-β-D-Galp-(1 → 4)-β-D-Galp-(1 → 6)-[β-D-Galp-(1 → 5)-α-L-Araf-(1 → 5)-α-L-Araf-(1 → 3)]-β-D-Galp-(1 → 6)-[β-D-Galp-(1 → 5)-α-L-Araf-(1 → 5)-{α-L-Araf-(1 → 3)}-α-L-Araf-(1 → 3)]-β-D-Galp-(1→. High EPS production relied on the expression of eps gene cluster and key enzymes of nucleotide sugar metabolism. Overall, EPS-M2 from a potential functional starter S. thermophilus CS6 provided opportunities for natural thickener, stabilizer, and antioxidant agent exploration in the food industry.

Abstract
Natural biopolymers have gained remarkable attention for bioremediation particularly in heavy metal removal and oil degradation due to their non-toxic nature and lack of secondary pollution. The exopolysaccharides (EPS) produced by the bacteria have become an important class of biopolymers that are employed in bioremediation. The bacteria isolated from the rhizospheric soil have higher metal tolerance and their EPS are effective in biosorption of heavy metals. Here, we report the characterization of an EPS (EPS-RN5) isolated from the root nodule-associated bacteria, Enterobacter cancerogenus strain YU16-RN5 and its heavy metal biosorption abilities. The bacteria isolated from the West coast of India was cultured in yeast extract mannitol (YEM) medium for EPS extraction and to study the production kinetics on a temporal scale. The biochemical composition, rheological properties and thermostability of EPS-RN5 was characterized by standard methods. The biosorption potential of EPS-RN5 against the selected heavy metals was analyzed by employing the inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES) technique. Further, cell culture experiments were used to test the role of EPS-RN5 in reducing the cytotoxicity exerted by the heavy metals in vitro using a human embryonic kidney cell line (HEK 293T). The bacteria showed good growth in YEM media and the maximum EPS yield was 1800 mg/L at 96 h. The molecular weight of EPS-RN5 was 0.7 × 106 Da and it contained 61.5% total sugars and 14.5% proteins. The monosaccharide composition of the EPS included glucose, sorbose and galactose in the ratio 0.25:0.07:1.0. The EPS-RN5 showed high thermal stability with a degradation temperature of 273 °C. Rheological analysis revealed the non-Newtonian behavior, with pseudoplastic characteristics. The EPS-RN5 efficiently absorbed cadmium and other heavy metals such as mercury, strontium, copper, arsenic, and uranium. In vitro studies revealed significant protective effect against the cadmium-induced cytotoxicity in HEK 293T cells. These results indicate the potential applications of EPS-RN5.

Abstract
The present study sought to isolate a novel exopolysaccharide (EPS-F2) from Enterococcus sp. F2 through ethanol precipitation, anion-exchange, and gel-filtration chromatography and characterize the physicochemical properties by spectral techniques. EPS-F2 was identified as a neutral homo-exopolysaccharide composed of only glucose with a high molecular weight of 1.108 × 108 g/mol. It contained →6)-α-D-Glcp-(1→ linkage in the main chain and →3, 6)-α-D-Glcp-(1→ branch chain). Moreover, EPS-F2 possessed excellent thermal stability (266.6°C), water holding capacity (882.5%), oil holding capacity (1867.76%), and emulsifying activity against various edible oils. The steady shear experiments exhibited stable pseudo plasticity under various conditions (concentrations, temperatures, and pHs). The dynamic oscillatory measurements revealed that EPS-F2 showed a liquid-like behavior at a low concentration (2.5%), while a solid-like behavior at high concentrations (3.0 and 3.5%). Overall, these results suggest that EPS-F2 could be a potential alternative source of functional additives and ingredients and be applied in food industries.

Abstract
Exopolysaccharides (EPSs) synthesized by lactic acid bacteria (LAB), have recently received much interest because of their various functional features in several industries. Food wastes (FWs) have become a major source of worry, as they can cause serious environmental contamination if improperly disposed. The utilization of these FWs is an excellent choice (approach) for producing value-added products such as EPSs, which will efficiently remediate wastes. The overall EPSs yield for the selected producers is strain-specific, and is heavily influenced by the nutritional and growing conditions used. This review emphasizes what is currently known about LAB's ability to generate economically relevant EPSs from FWs. In addition, a concise overview of the food industry, packaging, pharmaceutical and clinical applications application is discussed.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori is a cause of gastric cancer. We extracted the exopolysaccharide (EPS) of Lactobacillus plajomi PW-7 for antibacterial activity versus H. pylori, elucidating its biological activity and structural characteristics. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of EPS against H. pylori was 50 mg/mL. Disruption of the cell membranes of pathogenic bacteria by EPS was indicated via the antibacterial mechanism test and confirmed through electron microscopy. EPS also has antioxidant capacity. The IC50 of EPS for 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical, superoxide anions, and hydroxyl radicals were 300 μg/mL, 180 μg/mL, and 10 mg/mL, respectively. The reducing power of EPS was 2 mg/mL, equivalent to 20 μg/mL of ascorbic acid. EPS is a heteropolysaccharide comprising six monosaccharides, with an approximate molecular weight of 2.33 × 104 Da. Xylose had a significant effect on H. pylori. EPS from L. plajomi PW-7 showed potential as an antibacterial compound and antioxidant, laying a foundation for the development of EPS-based foods.

Abstract
Growth media composition is a critical factor influencing the yield of bacterial exopolysaccharides (EPSs), which have attracted the interest of researchers around the world due to their diverse physicochemical and biological properties. This work presents the optimization of media for EPS synthesis by three Lactobacillus rhamnosus strains, namely ŁOCK 0943, ŁOCK 0935, and OM-1. The optimized media led to a more than 13-fold increase in EPS yield for L. rhamnosus ŁOCK 0943 (from 85 to 1138.2 mg/L), an almost 9-fold increase for L. rhamnosus ŁOCK 0935 (from 103.67 to 900 mg/L), and a more than 7-fold increase for L. rhamnosus OM-1 (from 133.67 to 987.84 mg/L) as compared to cultures in standard MRS medium (de Man, Rogosa, and Sharpe). It has been found that the main medium-related determinant of EPS synthesis by the studied L. rhamnosus strains are the carbon source-in this case, it was fructose and sucrose.

Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) cultures used in food fermentation are often dried to reduce transportation costs and facilitate handling during use. Dried LAB ferments are generally lyophilized to ensure high cell viability. Spray drying has come to the forefront as a promising technique due to its versatility and lower associated energy costs. Adverse conditions during spray drying, such as mechanical stress, dehydration, heating, and oxygen exposure, can lead to low LAB cell viability. This reduced viability has limited spray drying's industrial applications thus far. This review aims to demonstrate the operations and thermodynamic principles that govern spray drying, then correlate them to the damage suffered by LAB cells during the spray-drying process. The particularities of spray drying that might cause LAB cell death are detailed in this review, and the conclusion may enhance future studies on ways to improve cell viability.

Abstract
There has been an increased application of exopolysaccharide (EPS)-producing lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in fermented dairy products, but interactions between EPS and casein (CAS), and bioactivities of their complex are poorly studied. In this study, EPS produced by Lactobacillus plantarum YW11 (EPS-YW11) was studied for interactions with CAS in a simulated fermentation system acidified by D-(+)-gluconic acid δ-lactone. The results showed that there was interaction between EPS-YW11 and CAS when EPS (up to 1%, w/v) was added to the casein solution (3%, w/v) as observed with increased viscoelasticity, water holding capacity, ζ-potential and particle size of EPS-YW11/CAS complex compared with CAS alone. Microstructural analysis showed that a higher concentration of EPS facilitated more even distribution of CAS particles that were connected through the polysaccharide chains. Infrared spectroscopy further confirmed interactions between EPS and CAS by intermolecular hydrogen bonding, electrostatic and hydrophobic contacts. Further evaluation of the bioactivities of EPS-YW11/CAS complex revealed significantly increased antibiofilm, antioxidation, and bile acids binding capacity. The present study provides further understanding on the mechanism of interactions between EPS produced by LAB and CAS, which would benefit potential applications of EPS in fermented dairy products with enhanced functionality.

Abstract
Folate deficiency is accompanied by gut dysbacteriosis. To understand dietary intervention in folate deficiency, a folate-deficient rat model was used to evaluate the modulatory effects of folate-producing lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and biofortified yogurt on gut dysbacteriosis. The high folate-producing strain was screened from 12 LABs, and its variant, namely Lactobacillus plantarum GSLP-7 V, with folate productivity in yogurt at 3.72 μg mL-1, was obtained by stressing with 5.0 mg L-1 methotrexate and 100.00 mg L-1 Ca2+. To our knowledge, this is the highest folate productivity in yogurt by LAB strains ever reported. To further examine the folate supplement effect in vivo, a folate-deficient rat model was established and fed a folate-free diet for 8 weeks. Also, the effects of L. plantrum GSLP-7 V, yogurt fermented with L. plantrum GSLP-7 V, plain yogurt, and chemical folic acid on folate deficiency and gut dysbacteriosis were examined. Analysis of the change in gut microbiota showed that the gut dysbacteriosis was significantly correlated with folate deficiency. Administration of L. plantrum GSLP-7 V and its fermented yogurt for 10 days restored the disrupted gut microbiota and recovered the serum folate and homocysteine to normal levels, while chemical folic acid worsened the gut dysbacteriosis. Chemical folic acid only enriched Akkermansia, while L. plantrum GSLP-7 V and its fermented yogurt modulated the gut microbiota comprehensively through 7 and 10 key genera, respectively. This study confirmed the effectiveness of dietary intervention with folate-biofortified yogurt through modulating gut microbiota, suggesting the potential of the folate-producing LAB as an agent for the treatment of folate-deficiency related diseases.

Characterization of Exopolysaccharides (EPSs) Obtained from Ligilactobacillus salivarius Strains and Investigation at the Prebiotic Potential as an Alternative to Plant Prebiotics at Poultry. Probiotics Antimicrob Proteins 2021; 14:49-59.

Abstract
In this study, it was aimed to reveal the potential of using exopolysaccharides (EPS) obtained from Ligilactobacillus salivarius as a prebiotic that regulates chicken intestinal microbiota. Characterization of EPS obtained from L. salivarius BIS312 (EPSBIS312) and BIS722 (EPSBIS722) strains was demonstrated by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) analyses. It was determined that the molecular weight of both EPS is in the range of 104-106 Daltons, and there are 4 types of monomers in their structure. Anti-biofilm and anti-quorum sensing effects of EPSBIS312 and EPSBIS722 were determined. EPSBIS312 and EPSBIS722 showed a strong anti-biofilm effect on Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, Staphylococcus aureus EB-1, and Escherichia coli ATCC 11229. The anti-quorum sensing study revealed that the EPSBIS722 had a higher effect than the EPSBIS312. The effect of different concentrations of EPS (2.5%, 5%, 10%) on lactobacilli growth stimulator (LGS) was evaluated. The highest LGS was promoted at 10% concentration while the lowest LGS was promoted at 2.5% concentration by EPSBIS722. In addition, adhesion abilities of EPSBIS312 and EPSBIS722 in HT-29 colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line were tested. EPSs significantly increased the ability to adhere to HT-29 cells. The characterized EPSs may be an alternative to plant prebiotics such as inulin at poultry.

Abstract
The natural ability of microorganisms to secrete high levels of bioactive compounds make them attractive hosts for producing novel compounds. Microbial biopolymers have potential applications in most of the sectors of the world economy. According to the physicochemical properties, they present some advantages, such as biodegradability, reproducibility, and stability. Based on this context, the objective of this work was to evaluate different methods for concentration and characterisation of extracellular biopolymers produced by Phoma sp. Extracellular biopolymers were produced by submerged fermentation and were concentrated by hollow fibre membranes and by adsorption. The structural characterisation of purified biopolymers was determined by Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy. Phytotoxic effects were assessed through absorption assays in detached leaves of Cucumis sativus and evaluated on the seventh day after application. The surface tension was evaluated for each sample. Hollow-fibre microfiltration membrane presented a higher purification factor than hollow-fibre ultrafiltration membrane. Extracellular biopolymers were identified in the permeate and retentate fractions, but in higher concentration in the retentate fractions. The adsorption process was efficient for recovering more than 88% of extracellular biopolymers from cell-free fermented broth. The best performance was obtained by using silica and activated carbon as adsorbent, with a recovery higher than 93%. The herbicidal activity was proportional to the concentration of biopolymers and the results are very promising for future applications because a concentrated solution of biopolymers can increase weed control. Membrane processes can be used to develop a liquid formulation of bioherbicide, whereas adsorption can be used to develop a solid formula.

Abstract
This study puts a focus on the influence of microbial in situ heteropolysaccharide (HePS) formation on the quality of raw fermented sausages (salami). Since exopolysaccharide-production is often triggered by sub-optimal growth conditions, the influence of different fermentation temperatures was also investigated. For this reason, the sausage batter was inoculated with (Lactobacillus plantarum TMW 1.1478) or without (L. sakei TMW 1.2037; control) a HePS-producing starter culture (inoculation concentration ~108 CFU/g), and the sausages fermented at either 10, 16, or 24°C (7 days), followed by a drying period at 14°C until the final weight loss of 31% was reached. Microbial growth, pH, and weight loss development were monitored and the products further characterized using texture profile analysis and a sensory test. HePS in the salami matrix were determined using confocal laser scanning microscopy and a semi-quantitative data interpretation approach. Sausages containing L. plantarum were found to be significantly (p < .05) softer compared with control samples, which was also confirmed in the sensory analysis. The different fermentation temperatures had an influence on the drying speed. Here, sausages produced with L. plantarum needed more time to reach the final weight loss of 31% as compared to control samples, which could be attributed to the presence of exopolysaccharides in the matrix (p < .05). Using HePS-forming starter cultures in raw fermented sausage manufacturing can lead to products with a softer texture (undesired in Europe) depending on the strain and processing conditions used, highlighting the importance of a suitable starter culture selection in food processing.

The reported health effects of fermented dairy foods, which are traditionally manufactured in Bulgaria, are connected with their microbial biodiversity. The screening and development of probiotic starters for dairy products with unique properties are based exclusively on the isolation and characterization of lactic acid bacterial (LAB) strains. This study aims to systematically describe the LAB microbial content of artisanal products such as Bulgarian-type yoghurt, white brined cheese, kashkaval, koumiss, kefir, katak, and the Rhodope's brano mliako. The original technologies for their preparation preserve the valuable microbial content and improve their nutritional and probiotic qualities. This review emphasises the features of LAB starters and the autochthonous microflora, the biochemistry of dairy food production, and the approaches for achieving the fortification of the foods with prebiotics, bioactive peptides (ACE2-inhibitors, bacteriocins, cyclic peptides with antimicrobial activity), immunomodulatory exopolysaccharides, and other metabolites (indol-3-propionic acid, free amino acids, antioxidants, prebiotics) with reported beneficial effects on human health. The link between the microbial content of dairy foods and the healthy human microbiome is highlighted.

Velasco L, Weiss J, Loeffler M. Influence of microbial in-situ heteropolysaccharide production on textural properties of raw fermented sausages (salami). JOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY 2021; 58:562-570. [PMID: 33568849 DOI: 10.1007/s13197-020-04568-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Revised: 05/23/2020] [Accepted: 06/10/2020] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
The purpose of the study was to investigate the influence of a heteropolysacchride (HePS)-forming lactic acid bacteria (LAB) on the quality attributes of raw fermented sausages. Therefore, salamis with the HePS-producing strain Lactobacillus plantarum TMW 1.1478 or the non-EPS-producing strain Lactobacillus sakei TMW 1.2037 (control) were manufactured using two different inoculation concentrations: more precisely, 107 CFU/g (typical starter culture concentration) or 109 CFU/g. Growth behavior, aw and pH development were recorded until a weight loss of 31% was reached and in-situ-formed EPS detected using confocal laser scanning microscopy. Moreover, the influence of the HePS formed on texture (texture profile analysis; TPA) and sensory attributes (26 panelists, ranking test) was investigated. The final products containing L. plantarum TMW 1.1478 were found to be significantly softer (p < 0.05) than the respective control samples, an effect that was even more pronounced at the higher inoculation level of 109 CFU/g. The semi-quantitative data interpretation of the CLSM pictures revealed that the EPS were predominantly formed during the first 72 h of fermentation at 24 °C until the final pH of 4.95 ± 0.05 was reached (stationary phase). The sensory evaluation (consistency) was in accordance with the TPA results and taste was not negatively influenced by the HePS-forming strain. Results clearly indicate that EPS-producing LAB can have a negative influence on the quality of raw fermented sausages. However, these strains (in the present case L. plantarum TMW 1.1478) might be interesting for application in the field of spreadable raw sausage manufacturing.

Abstract
An exopolysaccharide (EPS) was purified from the probiotic bacterium Bacillus licheniformis AG-06 isolated from the polyherbal fermented traditional medicine (Ashwagandharishta) of Indian Ayurveda. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) based compositional analysis exhibits the heteropolymeric nature of the EPS consisting of galactose, rhamnose, xylose, mannose, and glucose, as the monomeric units. Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic analyses confirm the presence of typical carbohydrate polymer functional groups and structural units, respectively. The purified EPS demonstrates the web-like fibrous and porous nature in scanning electron microscopic and atomic force microscopic studies. The purified EPS had shown 71.83% and 67.79% of flocculation and emulsification activities, respectively. Antioxidant activity was evaluated against 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), nitric oxide, and superoxide free radicals and the scavenging actions were increased in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, the purified EPS exhibits a significant cytotoxic activity against the human lung carcinoma cells (A549), which strongly suggests the anticancer potential of the EPS derived from B. licheniformis AG-06.

Abstract
Exopolysaccharide (EPS)-producing lactic acid bacteria have been widely used in dairy products, but how calcium, the main metal ion component in milk, regulates the EPS biosynthesis in lactic acid bacteria is not clear. In this study, the effect of Ca2+ on the biosynthesis of EPS in the probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum K25 was studied. The results showed that addition of CaCl2 at 20 mg/L in a semi-defined medium did not affect the growth of strain K25, but it increased the EPS yield and changed the microstructure of the polymer. The presence of Ca2+ also changed the monosaccharide composition of the EPS with decreased high molecular weight components and more content of rhamnose, though the functional groups of the polymer were not altered as revealed by Fourier transform infrared spectral analysis. These were further confirmed by analysis of the mRNA expression of cps genes, 9 of which were upregulated by Ca2+, including cps4F and rfbD associated with EPS biosynthesis with rhamnose. Proteomics analysis showed that Ca2+ upregulated most of the proteins related to carbon transport and metabolism, fatty acid synthesis, amino acid synthesis, ion transport, UMP synthesis. Specially, the increased expression of MelB, PtlIIBC, EIIABC, PtlIIC, PtlIID, Bgl, GH1, MalFGK, DhaK, and FBPase provided substrates for the EPS synthesis. Meanwhile, metabolomics analysis revealed significant change of the small molecular metabolites in tricarboxylic acid cycle, glucose metabolism and propionic acid metabolism. Among them the content of active small molecules such as polygalitol, lyxose, and 5-phosphate ribose increased, facilitating the EPS biosynthesis. Furthermore, Ca2+ activated HipB signaling pathway to inhibit the expression of manipulator repressor such as ArsR, LytR/AlgR, IscR, and RafR, and activated the expression of GntR to regulate the EPS synthesis genes. This study provides a basis for understanding the overall change of metabolic pathways related to the EPS biosynthesis in L. plantarum K25 in response to Ca2+, facilitating exploitation of its EPS-producing potential for application in probiotic dairy products.

LytR-CpsA-Psr Glycopolymer Transferases: Essential Bricks in Gram-Positive Bacterial Cell Wall Assembly. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22020908. [PMID: 33477538 PMCID: PMC7831098 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22020908] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2020] [Revised: 01/14/2021] [Accepted: 01/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
The cell walls of Gram-positive bacteria contain a variety of glycopolymers (CWGPs), a significant proportion of which are covalently linked to the peptidoglycan (PGN) scaffolding structure. Prominent CWGPs include wall teichoic acids of Staphylococcus aureus, streptococcal capsules, mycobacterial arabinogalactan, and rhamnose-containing polysaccharides of lactic acid bacteria. CWGPs serve important roles in bacterial cellular functions, morphology, and virulence. Despite evident differences in composition, structure and underlaying biosynthesis pathways, the final ligation step of CWGPs to the PGN backbone involves a conserved class of enzymes-the LytR-CpsA-Psr (LCP) transferases. Typically, the enzymes are present in multiple copies displaying partly functional redundancy and/or preference for a distinct CWGP type. LCP enzymes require a lipid-phosphate-linked glycan precursor substrate and catalyse, with a certain degree of promiscuity, CWGP transfer to PGN of different maturation stages, according to in vitro evidence. The prototype attachment mode is that to the C6-OH of N-acetylmuramic acid residues via installation of a phosphodiester bond. In some cases, attachment proceeds to N-acetylglucosamine residues of PGN-in the case of the Streptococcus agalactiae capsule, even without involvement of a phosphate bond. A novel aspect of LCP enzymes concerns a predicted role in protein glycosylation in Actinomyces oris. Available crystal structures provide further insight into the catalytic mechanism of this biologically important class of enzymes, which are gaining attention as new targets for antibacterial drug discovery to counteract the emergence of multidrug resistant bacteria.

Abstract
To investigate the effect of environmental stresses on the exopolysaccharide biosynthesis, after 24 h of culture at 37 °C with pH 6.8 and without sodium chloride, Lactobacillus plantarum VAL6 was exposed to different stress conditions, including pH (pHs of 3 and 8) and high sodium chloride concentration treatments. The results found that Lactobacillus plantarum VAL6 exposed to stress at pH 3 for 3 h gives the highest exopolysaccharide yield (50.44 g/L) which is 6.4 fold higher than non-stress. Under pH and sodium chloride stresses, the mannose content in exopolysaccharides decreased while the glucose increased in comparison with non-stress condition. The galactose content was highest under stress condition of pH 8 meantime rhamnose content increased sharply when Lactobacillus plantarum VAL6 was stressed at pH 3. The arabinose content in exopolysaccharides was not detected under non-stress condition but it was recorded in great amounts after 3 h of stress at pH 3. In addition, stress of pH 8 triggered the mRNA expression of epsF gene resulting in galactose-rich EPS synthesis. According to our results, the stresses of pH and sodium chloride enhance the production and change the mRNA expression of epsF gene, leading to differences in the monosaccharide composition of exopolysaccharides.

Abstract
Ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) and pressurized hot water extraction (PHWE) were tested as advanced clean methods to obtain polysaccharides from Phoma dimorpha mycelial biomass. These methods were compared to conventional extraction (hot water extraction, HWE) in terms of polysaccharides-enriched fractions (PEF) yield. A central composite rotational design was performed for each extraction method to investigate the influence of independent variables on the yield and to help the selection of the condition with the highest yield using water as an extraction solvent. The best extraction condition of PEF yielded 12.02 wt% and was achieved when using UAE with direct sonication for 30 min under the intensity of 75.11 W/cm2 and pulse factor of 0.57. In the kinetic profiles, the highest yield (15.28 wt%) was obtained at 50 °C under an ultrasound intensity of 75.11 W/cm2 and a pulse factor of 0.93. Structural analysis of extracted polysaccharide was performed using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and thermal property. The water solubility index, water holding capacity, and emulsification index of PEF were 31.3 ± 1.5%, 138.1 ± 3.2%, and 62.9 ± 2.3%, respectively. The submerged fermentation demonstrates the huge potential of Phoma dimorpha to produce polysaccharides with bioemulsifying properties as a biotechnologically cleaner alternative if compared to commercial petroleum-derived compounds. Furthermore, UAE and PHWE are green technologies, which can be operated at an industrial scale for PEF extraction.

Therapeutic Effect of Calcipotriol Pickering Nanoemulsions Prepared by Exopolysaccharides Produced by Bacillus halotolerans FYS Strain on Psoriasis. Int J Nanomedicine 2020; 15:10371-10384. [PMID: 33376326 PMCID: PMC7764976 DOI: 10.2147/ijn.s278247] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2020] [Accepted: 11/20/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Many exopolysaccharides (EPS) have significant emulsifying activity. Some EPS produced by the marine bacterial strain FYS have stronger emulsifying activity in the form of nanoparticles, suggesting that they could potentially form Pickering emulsions. We prepared novel EPS/CT Pickering nanoemulsions (ECPN) with EPS as emulsifiers and assessed their ability to ameliorate the poor permeability of calcipotriol (CT) in skin affected by psoriasis vulgaris. METHODS A strain of marine bacterium FYS was identified. Molecular weight, monosaccharide composition and microstructure of EPS were determined by gel permeation chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography and scanning electron microscopy. EPS nanoparticles were prepared by adjusting the pH, and the emulsifying activity was studied at different pH. ECPN were prepared by ultrasound and optimized by the response surface method. The size distribution, microstructure, stability and in vitro drug release of ECPN were studied. The therapeutic effect of ECPN on psoriasis vulgaris was explored by animal experiments and characterizing histomorphology in vivo. RESULTS A phylogenetic tree revealed that FYS was a Bacillus halodurans strain. EPS produced by the strain were heteropolysaccharides with a three-dimensional network composed of glucose, galactose, glucuronic acid, rhamnose, galacturonic acid and mannose (32.0:34.3:9.7:7.4:10.3:6.3). The EPS can form nanoparticles at pH = 4-6 with enhanced emulsifying ability. Transmission electron microscopy revealed that EPS nanoparticles adhered to the surface of oil droplets to stabilize the emulsions via a Pickering emulsification mechanism. The prepared ECPN have high stability with a sustained-release effect. Finally, animal experiments showed that ECPN effectively shortened the treatment course of psoriasis vulgaris. CONCLUSION EPS is highly possible to have the potential Pickering emulsification mechanism. The stability of the nanoemulsion was high. ECPN also showed potential for use in the treatment of psoriasis vulgaris. This study provides new insight into the medical applications of EPS and the treatment of psoriasis.
