Abstract
Several lactic acid bacteria are able to produce water-soluble and water-insoluble homoexopolysaccharides (HoEPS) from sucrose. In this study, structures of all HoEPS which were fermentatively produced by Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. dextranicum NRRL B-1121 and B-1144, Leuconostoc mesenteroides subsp. mesenteroides NRRL B-1149, B-1438 and B-1118, Leuconostoc suionicum DSM 20241, and Liquorilactobacillus satsumensis DSM 16230 were systematically analyzed. Monosaccharide analysis, methylation analysis, NMR spectroscopy, size-exclusion chromatography, and different enzymatic fingerprinting methods were used to obtain detailed structural information. All strains produced water-soluble dextrans and/or levans as well as water-insoluble glucans. Levans showed different degrees of branching and high molecular weights, whereas dextrans had comparable structures and broader size distributions. Fine structures of water-soluble HoEPS were analyzed after endo-dextranase and endo-levanase hydrolysis. Water-insoluble glucans were composed of different portions of 1,3-linkages (5 to 40 %). Hydrolysis with endo-dextranase and endo-mutanase yielded further information on block sizes and varying fine structures. Overall, clear differences between HoEPS yields and structures were observed.

Abstract
Consumption of high FODMAP (Fermentable Oligo-, Di-, and Monosaccharides and Polyols) diet is the leading cause of alteration in the human gut microbiome, thereby, causing irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Therefore, sourdough technology can be exploited for reduction of FODMAPs in various foods to alleviate the symptoms of IBS. Several microorganisms viz. Pichia fermentans, Lactobacillus fetmentum, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Torulaspora delbrueckii, Kluyveromyces marxianus etc. have been identified for the production of low FODMAP type II sourdough fermented products. However, more research on regulation of end-product and volatilome profile is required for maximal exploitation of FODMAP-reducing microorganisms. Therefore, the present review is focused on utilisation of lactic acid bacteria and yeasts, alone and in synergy, for the production of low FODMAP sourdough foods. Moreover, the microbial bioprocessing of cereal and non-cereal based low FODMAP fermented sourdough products along with their nutritional and therapeutic benefits have been elaborated. The challenges and future prospects for the production of sourdough fermented low FODMAP foods, thereby, bringing out positive alterations in gut microbiome, have also been discussed.

Abstract
Levan is a high-valued β-(2,6)-linked fructan with promising physicochemical and physiological properties and has diverse potential applications in the food, nutraceutical, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry, but its commercial availability is still restricted to the relatively high costs of production. In this study, a strain identified as Microbacterium sp. XL1 was isolated from soil and highly produced exopolysaccharide (EPS). HPLC, FTIR and NMR spectroscopy revealed XL1-EPS is a levan-type fructan connected by β-(2, 6) linkages. SEM, DLS and TGA-DSC analysis showed that XL1-EPS processed high morphological versatility, narrow size distribution in its solutions and excellent thermal stability. The levan yield reached 83.67 ± 4.06 g/L with corresponding productivity of 3.49 ± 0.17 g/L/h and a conversion yield of 39.8 ± 1.9 % using sucrose (210 g/L) as substrates under the optimal cultivation conditions concluded by the response surface methodology (RSM). More strikingly, the XL1 strain also has multi-type fructanases to generate levanbiose, kestose, DFA IV and other L-FOSs. These results suggest Microbacterium sp. XL1 is a promising strain to produce levan and can provide various levan/inulin-degrading enzymes to create a great diversity of FOSs.

Abstract
Endophytic bacteria refer to bacteria which promote plant growth via direct and indirect mechanisms. Three endophytic bacteria isolated from Jerusalem artichoke exhibited plant growth induction and inulin production. These bacteria had functions of fructan degradation and synthesis from inulinase and levansucrase, respectively. Rossellomorea aquimaris 3.13 and Priestia megaterium 3.5 obtained inulinase/levanase enzyme with inulin and levan as substrates; enzyme production showed the optimum conditions in 1% inulin medium of 35 °C, pH 7.0. Bacillus velezensis 5.18 and Priestia megaterium 3.5 had inulosucrase/levansucrase enzyme with sucrose as a major carbon source; the enzyme had optimum temperature and pH conditions of 30 °C and pH 7.0, respectively. A combination of carbon sources had effect on decreasing enzyme activity; in addition, co-inoculation of bacteria showed a slight difference in enzyme production compared with single inoculation. The inulosucrase/levansucrase was produced earlier in co-culture containing bacteria with inulinase activity. Plant fructan synthesis was involved in 1-SST and 1-FFT, while 1-FEH encoded inulin degradation; these genes were evaluated in Jerusalem artichoke inoculated with the endophytic bacteria to quantify gene expression level using qPCR. All genes expressed in low levels at early stage of growth, responding to all endophytic bacteria. Significantly, Bacillus velezensis 5.18 induced all genes of the plant at 65 days of inoculation; Rossellomorea aquimaris 3.13 induced 1-FFT while Priestia megaterium 3.5 induced 1-SST.

Abstract
Levan-type fructooligosaccharides (L-FOSs) are a prominent class of non-digestible oligosaccharides with potential as nutritional prebiotics. Endo-levanase, which randomly hydrolyzes β-(2,6)-linkages in fructans, is a promising enzyme for short-chain FOS production. In this work, a recombinant levanase (LevBk) from Bacillus koreensis strain HL12 was characterized. Soluble LevBk protein was produced in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3) system at 40 mg/L of culture medium. Based on sequence and structural analysis, LevBk was classified as a member of endo-levanase in GH32 family containing N-terminal substrate binding pocket and C-terminal β-sandwich domains. LevBk optimally worked at 45 °C, pH 6.0 with the specific activity of 2.43 U/mg. Based on enzymatic hydrolysis, short-chain L-FOSs with degree of polymerization (DP) of 2-4 were produced from hydrolysis of timothy grass levan under optimal conditions for 9-24 h. With its ability to produce L-FOSs with specific chain lengths, LevBk could be attractively applied for converting of levan containing material to high value-added sweetener in the biorefinery industry.

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
Oligofructans are potential biological substances that due to their distinctive properties have a positive health-promoting effect. This research aimed to produce oligofructans using sugarcane juice fermentation with Bacillus subtilis TISTR 001 and to study the prebiotic properties in vitro. The results showed that the maximum total oligofructans in the form of free fructose was 2.57% (w/v) at the 84th hour of fermentation with 0.17 g/g reducing sugar and a production yield of 0.031 g/L/h and maximum levansucrase activity of 1.57 × 106 U/mL at that time. The oligofructans contained in the fermented juice had potential functional ingredients that exhibited prebiotic properties that could resist the digestion of enzymes in the gastrointestinal tract under in vitro conditions with digestion of only 6.92%. In addition, the fermented juice promoted the growth of prebiotics, especially Bifidobacterium bifidum TISTR 2129 and inhibited the growth of pathogens using both single culturing and co-culturing with probiotics.

Abstract
Levan is a versatile and valuable fructose homopolymer, and a few bacterial strains have been found to produce levan. Although levan products have numerous specific functions, their application and promotion were limited by the production capacity and production cost. Bacillus velezensis BM-2 is a levan-synthesizing strain, but its levan production is too low to apply. In this study, the levansucrase gene of B. velezensis BM-2 was cloned to plasmid pET-32a-Acma-zz, and the recombinant plasmids were transferred to Escherichia coli BL21. A transformed clone was selected to express and secrete the fusion enzymes with an Acma-tag efficiently. The expressed products were further purified by a self-developed separating material called bacterial enhancer matrix (BEM) particles. The purification efficiency was 93.4%, with a specific activity of 16.589 U/mL protein. The enzymatic reaction results indicated that the optimal reaction temperature is 50 °C, the optimal pH of the acetate buffer is 5.6, and the buffer system greatly influenced the enzyme activity. The enzyme activity was enhanced to 130% in the presence of 5 mM Ca2+, K+, Zn2+, and Mn2+, whereas it was almost abolished in the case of Cu2+ and Fe3+. The values of Km, kcat, and kcat/Km were 17.41 mM, 376.83 s−1, and 21.64 mM−1s−1, respectively. The enzyme amount of 20 U/g sucrose was added to the system containing 400 g/L sucrose, and the levan products with a concentration of 120 g/L reached after an incubation of 18 h, which was 8 times that of the yield before optimization. The results of molecular docking analysis indicated that the Asp86 might act as a nucleophilic catalytic residue for sucrose, Arg246 and Asp247 act as transition state stabilizer of transfructosylation, and Glu340 and Arg306 were recognized as general acid donors. They formed the catalytic-groups triad. The unique properties and catalytic activity of the levansucrase suggest that it deserves further research and might have good industrial application prospects.

Abstract
In the meat industry, hydrocolloids and phosphates are used to improve the quality attributes of meat products. However, latest research results revealed that the usage of exopolysaccharide (EPS)-forming lactic acid bacteria (LAB), which are able to produce EPS in situ during processing could be an interesting alternative. The current review aims to give a better understanding of bacterial EPS production in food matrices with a special focus on meat products. This includes an introduction to microbial EPS production (homopolysaccharides as well as heteropolysaccharides) and an overview of parameters affecting EPS formation and yield depending on LAB used. This is followed by a summary of methods to detect and characterize EPS to facilitate a rational selection of starter cultures and fermentation conditions based on desired structure-function relationships in different food matrices. The mechanism of action of in situ generated EPS is then highlighted with an emphasis on different meat products. In the process, this review also highlights food additives currently used in meat production that could in the future be replaced by in situ EPS-forming LAB.

Abstract
The aim of this research was to determine the optimal medium for Exopolysaccharides (EPS) production by a Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus ropy strain isolated from a locally produced commercial fermented milk, in reconstituted skim milk (RSM) 10% (w/v), milk whey (MW), and soy milk whey (SMW), under optimal growth conditions for this strain. Milk whey was made by coagulating fresh milk using papaya latex 3% (v/v); soy milk whey was obtained from tofu household industry. The chemical composition of the substrate media was determined by proximate analysis, and sterilization was accomplished in an autoclave at 121°C for 15 min. Culture media were inoculated with 1% (v/v) of a starter culture of L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and then incubated at 30°C for 16 hr. EPS production, lactic acid content, cell counting, and pH were determined after the media were cooled at 5°C. Findings showed that on the basis of the growth characteristics of L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, the best medium for EPS production was RSM 10% (258.60 ± 26.86 mg/L) compared to the milk whey (69.60 ± 9.48 mg/L) and soy milk whey (49.80 ± 9.04 mg/L).
