Garmasheva I, Tomila T, Kharkhota M, Oleschenko L. Exopolysaccharides of lactic acid bacteria as protective agents against bacterial and viral plant pathogens. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 276:133851. [PMID: 39004247 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.133851] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2024] [Revised: 07/03/2024] [Accepted: 07/11/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
In this study, 25 exopolysaccharides produced by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were screened for their effect on plant pathogens. The molecular masses of EPS were found to be 3,8-5,0 × 104 Da. The GC-MS analysis revealed that EPSs were majorly composed of glucose (85.85-97.98 %). The FT-IR spectra of EPSs were in agreement with the typical absorption peaks of polysaccharides. EPSs showed a hydroxyl radical scavenging ability. The scavenging rate of EPS ranged from 20 to 50 % at a concentration of 5.0 mg/mL. Significant growth delay of phytopathogenic bacteria was observed after 3-6 h of cultivation. Optical density values of indicator cultures growing in the medium with EPS (1 mg/mL) were lower compared to the control by 24-100 % for Pseudomonas fluorescens, 9-46 % for P. syringae, 47-79 % for Pectobacterium carotovorum, 14-90 % for Clavibacter michiganensis, 9-100 % for Xantomonas campestris, and 45-100 % for X. vesicatorium. EPS retained their inhibitory effect on the growth of X. campestris, X. vesicatorium and C. michiganensis strains after 24-48 h of cultivation, but stimulating effect on the growth of some strains also was observed. LAB EPS showed antibiofilm activity against P. carotovorum, P. syringae, and P. fluorescent, decreasing their biofilm formation by 16-50 %, 14-39 %, and 29-59 %, respectively. Also, stimulation of biofilm formation by X. campestris (by 8-29 %), X. vesicatorium (by 3-32 %) and C. michiganensis (by 31-41 %) strains was observed. EPSs showed antiviral activity against tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). At a concentration of 100 μg/mL, they decreased the infective ability of TMV by 61-92 %. This is the first study demonstrating that LAB EPS exhibited in vitro antibacterial and antibiofilm activity against phytopathogenic bacteria and anti-viral activity against TMV. Thus, LAB EPSs could have great potential for plant protection strategies.

Arch Microbiol 2024; 206:389. [PMID: 39210205 DOI: 10.1007/s00203-024-04112-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2024] [Revised: 08/13/2024] [Accepted: 08/14/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
Exopolysaccharides produced by lactic acid bacteria have gained attention for their potential health benefits and applications in functional foods. This study explores the isolation and characterization of a novel exopolysaccharide-producing strain from dairy products. The aim was to evaluate its probiotic potential and investigate the properties of the produced exopolysaccharide. A strain identified as Enterococcus faecium PCH.25, isolated from cow butter, demonstrated exopolysaccharide production. The study's novelty lies in the comprehensive characterization of this strain and its exopolysaccharide, revealing unique properties with potential applications in food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries. The E. faecium PCH.25 strain exhibited strong acid tolerance, with a 92.24% viability rate at pH 2 after 2 h of incubation. It also demonstrated notable auto-aggregation (85.27% after 24 h) and co-aggregation abilities, antibiotic sensitivity, and absence of hemolytic activity, suggesting its probiotic potential. The exopolysaccharide produced by this strain showed bactericidal activity (MIC and MBC = 1.8 mg/ml) against Listeria monocytogenes and antioxidant properties (22.8%). Chemical analysis revealed a heteropolysaccharide composed of glucose and fructose monomers, with various functional groups contributing to its bioactivities. Physical characterization of the exopolysaccharide indicated thermal stability up to 270 °C, a negative zeta-potential (-27 mV), and an average particle size of 235 nm. Scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray analysis revealed a smooth, nonporous structure primarily composed of carbon and oxygen, with an amorphous nature. These findings suggest that the exopolysaccharide from E. faecium PCH.25 has potential as a natural antibacterial and antioxidant polymer for use in functional foods, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.

Abstract
The current study describes the isolation of exopolysaccharide (EPS) producing lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from marine samples and testing different sugar additives with different proportions for enhanced EPS yield. The isolate MSD8 showed the most potential, yielding 200 mg/L of EPS after being cultivated at 37 °C for 48 h on de Man Rogosa and Sharpe medium (MRS) supplemented with 3% sucrose. The marine isolate MSD8 was identified as Enterococcus faecium with 99.58% probability using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The obtained sequence was deposited in GenBank and assigned the accession number MW924065. The feature of MSD8-EPS was characterized by estimating the total carbohydrate content by UV-vis to be ~ 71%. The FTIR analysis further indicated the presence of characteristic bands of polysaccharide. The cytotoxicity of the produced MSD8-EPS was assessed using human skin fibroblasts (HSF). The IC50 was determined to be > 100 μg/mL, which signifies that MSD8-EPS is safe for skin application. The produced EPS was used to prepare a novel ointment, which was tested for wound healing ability in male albino rats. The ointment significantly (P ≤ 0.05) shortened the time needed for wound healing, as it successfully healed the wounds by 94.93% on the 7th day and completely (100%) healed the wound by the 12th day. In comparison, the control group was healed by 73.2% and 84.83%, respectively. The data confirm that the prepared ointment can safely be used for pharmaceutical wound care products.

Abstract
In this study, EPS production conditions of Geobacillus thermodenitrificans HBB 111, a thermophilic microorganism, were optimized and the amount of produced EPS (EPS 111) was found to be 44.0 mg/L. EPS 111 was purified using ion exchange chromatography and gel filtration chromatography, and a single type of exopolysaccharide was obtained. The structure of the purified EPS 111 was evaluated by TLC, FTIR, NMR, and GC-MS, and it was observed that it contained hexose (glucose, fructose, galactose and mannose) and pentose sugars. From the SEM photographs, it was understood that EPS 111 had an amorphous, rough, and layered structure. It was found that purified EPS 111 had low cytotoxicity (2.3%) and exhibited high antioxidant activity and remarkable antidiabetic, prebiotic and fibrinolytic activities. It is very valuable that the purified EPS 111 in this study offers multiple biological activities compared to the thermophilic EPSs reported in the literature and has a high potential for use in biotechnological and biomedical fields.

Abstract
The probiotic beverage was developed using germinated and ungerminated pearl millet flour and green gram milk. The germinated and ungerminated pearl millet flour was added to green gram milk at different concentrations (0.5-2.5 %) along with sugar and cardamom. The mixtures were then inoculated with probiotic bacteria Lactobacillus acidophilus incubated at 37 °C for 6 h. Characterization of probiotic beverages was carried out during storage at (4 ± 1)°C for 21 days. The germinated flour beverage had high acidity as compared to the ungerminated flour beverage. The probiotic count in germinated and ungerminated flour beverages ranged from 8.19 to 8.77 × 107 and 8.04 to 8.52 × 107 log CFU/mL, respectively. Antioxidant activity, polyphenol content increased with an increase in the concentration of flour in the beverage. The LC-MS analysis found the existence of vitexin and isovitexin as the main polyphenolic compounds in the probiotic beverage. Non-dairy probiotic beverage prepared with 0.5 % germinated millet flour gave the best taste, color, texture, and rheological properties.

Abstract
This investigation centers on the synthesis of a polysaccharide-protein blend produced by an isolated native strain (99.12 % phylogenetic affinity with Bacillus arachidis SY8(T)). The primary objective was to investigate the production of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) under diverse stress conditions, encompassing exposure to heavy metal ions, salt, and toxic agents. Additionally, the impact of environmental parameters, namely pH, inoculation percentage, and time, on the production was investigated. Subsequently, the study examined the biosorption potential of the EPS produced for Pb(II), Cu(II), and Mn(II). The EPS obtained was thoroughly characterized via various tests. Rheological evaluations of an EPS solution (2 wt%) confirmed its pseudo-plastic and non-Newtonian fluid properties, while TGA analysis demonstrated its thermal stability up to 600 °C. Additional analyses, including GPC, FTIR, and H-NMR, provide further insights into the produced EPS. The best conditions for EPS production are determined: 5 % NaCl salt, serving as an effective stress inducer, and 37 °C, pH 6, with a 5 % inoculation, over 96 h. EPS demonstrates remarkable removal efficiencies of 99.9, 99.4 and 78.9 % for Pb(II), Cu(II), and Mn(II), respectively. These findings highlight the potential of EPS as an effective agent for removing heavy metal ions.

Abstract
Exopolysaccharides (EPSs) producing lactic acid bacteria have been claimed to confer various health benefits to the host, including the ability to face oxidative and inflammatory-related stress. This study investigated the ability of food-borne Lactiplantibacillus (Lpb.) plantarum to improve the antioxidant activity of fermented milks by producing EPSs. Two Lpb. plantarum strains, selected as lower and higher EPSs producers, have been applied in lab-scale fermented milk production, in combination with conventional starters. Antioxidant activity was investigated in vitro using DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl), ABTS (2,2-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid), and FRAP (ferric reducing antioxidant power) assays while the ability to modulate reactive oxygen species (ROS) level was evaluated in an intestinal healthy model, subjected to both oxidative and inflammatory stress. Furthermore, to verify whether digestion affects functionality, fermented milks were evaluated before and after in vitro-simulated INFOGEST digestion. The results showed an improved antioxidant activity of fermented milk enriched with Lpb. plantarum LT100, the highest EPSs producer. Furthermore, the data showed a different ROS modulation with a protective anti-inflammatory effect of samples enriched with Lpb. plantarum strains. Our data suggest the use of selected EPS-producing strains of Lpb. plantarum as a natural strategy to enrich the functionality of fermented milks in terms of ROS modulation and inflammatory-related stress.

Abstract
Heavy metal pollution is a significant global health concern, posing risks to both the environment and human health. Exposure to heavy metals happens through various channels like contaminated water, food, air, and workplaces, resulting in severe health implications. Heavy metals also disrupt the gut's microbial balance, leading to dysbiosis characterized by a decrease in beneficial microorganisms and proliferation in harmful ones, ultimately exacerbating health problems. Probiotic microorganisms have demonstrated their ability to adsorb and sequester heavy metals, while their exopolysaccharides (EPS) exhibit chelating properties, aiding in mitigating heavy metal toxicity. These beneficial microorganisms aid in restoring gut integrity through processes like biosorption, bioaccumulation, and biotransformation of heavy metals. Incorporating probiotic strains with high affinity for heavy metals into functional foods and supplements presents a practical approach to mitigating heavy metal toxicity while enhancing gut health. Utilizing probiotic microbiota and their exopolysaccharides to address heavy metal toxicity offers a novel method for improving human health through modulation of the gut microbiome. By combining probiotics and exopolysaccharides, a distinctive strategy emerges for mitigating heavy metal toxicity, highlighting promising avenues for therapeutic interventions and health improvements. Further exploration in this domain could lead to groundbreaking therapies and preventive measures, underscoring probiotic microbiota and exopolysaccharides as natural and environmentally friendly solutions to heavy metal toxicity. This, in turn, could enhance public health by safeguarding the gut from environmental contaminants.

Abstract
In this study, the novel polysaccharides named HSP-0 M and HSP-0.1 M were successfully purified from Huangshui (HS), and their structural properties and bioactivities were investigated. Structural analysis revealed that HSP-0 M had a molecular weight of 493.87 kDa and was composed of arabinose, galactose, glucose, xylose, and mannose in a molar ratio of 1.48:1.09:26.52:1.33:1.00. On the other hand, HSP-0.1 M was made up of fructose, arabinose, galactose, glucose, xylose, mannose, ribose, galacturonic acid and glucuronic acid in a ratio of 2.67:26.00:29.10:36.83:16.22:30.53:1.00:1.43:3.64 with a molecular weight of 157.6 kDa. Methylated and 2D NMR analyses indicated that T-Glcp-(1 → 4)-Glcp-(1 → 2)-Glcp-(1 → 3)-Glcp was the primary chain of HSP-0 M, and the backbone of HSP-0.1 M was made up of →3)-Galp-(1 → 6)-Manp-(1 → 3)-Glcp-(1 → 6)-Glcp-(1 → 2)-Manp-(1 → 6)-Glcp-(1 → 3)-Galp. Morphological research showed that both polysaccharides were homogeneous as well as exhibit a web-like structure and an irregular lamellar structure. Furthermore, HSP-0 M demonstrated the capacity to safeguard Lactococcus lactis from damage caused by low temperatures and freeze-drying, while HSP-0.1 M exhibited noteworthy antioxidant activity. These results established a theoretical foundation for the applications of HSPs in food products, cosmetics, and medicines.

Abstract
The discharge of dye-laden wastewater into the water streams causes severe water and soil pollution, which poses a global threat to aquatic ecosystems and humans. A diverse array of microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, and algae produce exopolysaccharides (EPS) of different compositions and exhibit great bioflocculation potency to sustainably eradicate dyes from water bodies. Nanomodified chemical composites of EPS enable their recyclability during dye-laden wastewater treatment. Nevertheless, the selection of potent EPS-producing strains and physiological parameters of microbial growth and the remediation process could influence the removal efficiency of EPS. This review will intrinsically discuss the fundamental importance of EPS from diverse microbial origins and their nanomodified chemical composites, the mechanisms in EPS-mediated bioremediation of dyes, and the parametric influences on EPS-mediated dye removal through sorption/bioflocculation. This review will pave the way for designing and adopting futuristic green and sustainable EPS-based bioremediation strategies for dye-laden wastewater in situ and ex situ.

[PMID: 38659983 PMCID: PMC11039919 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2024.1385493] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2024] [Accepted: 03/18/2024] [Indexed: 04/26/2024] Open
Abstract
The escalating global threat of antimicrobial resistance necessitates prospecting uncharted microbial biodiversity for novel therapeutic leads. This study mines the promising chemical richness of Bacillus licheniformis LHG166, a prolific exopolysaccharide (EPSR2-7.22 g/L). It comprised 5 different monosaccharides with 48.11% uronic acid, 17.40% sulfate groups, and 6.09% N-acetyl glucosamine residues. EPSR2 displayed potent antioxidant activity in DPPH and ABTS+, TAC and FRAP assays. Of all the fungi tested, the yeast Candida albicans displayed the highest susceptibility and antibiofilm inhibition. The fungi Aspergillus niger and Penicillium glabrum showed moderate EPSR2 susceptibility. In contrast, the fungi Mucor circinelloides and Trichoderma harzianum were resistant. Among G+ve tested bacteria, Enterococcus faecalis was the most susceptible, while Salmonella typhi was the most sensitive to G-ve pathogens. Encouragingly, EPSR2 predominantly demonstrated bactericidal effects against both bacterial classes based on MBC/MIC of either 1 or 2 superior Gentamicin. At 75% of MBC, EPSR2 displayed the highest anti-biofilm activity of 88.30% against B. subtilis, while for G-ve antibiofilm inhibition, At 75% of MBC, EPSR2 displayed the highest anti-biofilm activity of 96.63% against Escherichia coli, Even at the lowest dose of 25% MBC, EPSR2 reduced biofilm formation by 84.13% in E. coli, 61.46% in B. subtilis. The microbial metabolite EPSR2 from Bacillus licheniformis LHG166 shows promise as an eco-friendly natural antibiotic alternative for treating infections and oxidative stress.

Physicochemical and structural characterisation of a branched dextran type exopolysaccharide (EPS) from Weissella confusa S6 isolated from fermented sausage (Sucuk). Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 264:130507. [PMID: 38428765 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130507] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 02/26/2024] [Indexed: 03/03/2024]
Abstract
Exopolysaccharide (EPS) producing Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) species can be presented in distinct environments. In this study, Turkish fermented sausage (sucuk) was tested for the presence of EPS producer LAB strains and slimy-mucoid colonies were selected for further tests. Among the isolates, Weissella confusa strain S6 was identified and tested for the physicochemical characterisation of its EPS. This strain was found to produce 0.74 g L-1 of EPS in modified BHI medium conditions. Structural characterisation of EPS S6 by 1H and 13C NMR demonstrated that EPS S6 was a highly branched dextran type glucan formed by mainly (1 → 2)-linked α-d-glucose units together with low levels of (1 → 3)-linked α-d-glucose units as branching points. This structure was further confirmed by methylation analysis detected by GC-MS. An average molecular weight of 8 × 106 Da was detected for dextran S6. The FTIR analysis supported the dextran structure and revealed the presence of distinct functional groups within dextran S6 structure. A strong thermal profile was observed for dextran S6 detected by DSC and TGA analysis and dextran S6 revealed a degradation temperature of 289 °C. In terms of physical status, dextran S6 showed amorphous nature detected by XRD analysis. SEM analysis of dextran S6 demonstrated its rough, compact and porous morphology whereas AFM analysis of dextran S6 detected in its water solution showed the irregularity with no clear cross-link within the dextran chains. These technological features of dextran S6 suggests its potential to be used for in situ or ex situ application during meat fermentations.

Abstract
This study investigated the characteristics of polysaccharides from date pomace using microwave-assisted deep eutectic solvents. The impact on the gut microbiota and probiotics growth was examined in vitro. The study also examined its antioxidant properties, ability to inhibit enzymes linked to diabetes and high blood pressure, impact on cell growth, and physical properties. The isolated MPS had an average molecular weight of 8073.38 kDa and contained mannose, galacturonic acid, galactose, glucose, and fructose in specific proportions. At a concentration of 1000 mg/L, MPS showed strong antioxidant activity, with significant scavenging rates in various tests such as DPPH (57.0 ± 1.05 %) and ABTS (66.4 ± 2.48 %). MPS displayed 77 %, 80 %, and 43 % inhibition for α-amylase, α-glucosidase, and ACE-inhibition, respectively. MPS displayed significant antiproliferative effects, achieving 100 % and 99 % inhibition against Caco-2 and MCF-7 cells at 2500 mg/L, respectively. MPS showed broad-spectrum antibacterial properties against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative foodborne bacteria. Gemmiger formicilis, Blautia species, Collinsella aerofaciens, and Bifidobacterium longum showed strong positive correlations, suggesting increased SCFA production. Network analysis indicated species correlations, with 86 % showing negative correlations with Escherichia and Enterococcus saccharolyticus. MPS was abundant in Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, and Proteobacteria phyla. Date pomace could serve as a dietary fiber source, promoting better health.

Abstract
Exopolysaccharides (EPS) are natural polymers synthesized by several microorganisms, including lactic acid bacteria (LAB). They are characterized by a great structural diversity, which gives them interesting biological and pharmacological properties. This work investigates the physicochemical and biological characterization of a new exopolysaccharide (EPS) produced by a wild Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus P14. The functional groups, chemical bonds, and thermal and morphological properties of the purified EPS-P14 were determined using Fourier Transform Infrared, Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, and X-ray diffraction spectroscopies, as well as Thermo-gravimetric analysis, Differential Scanning Calorimetry and Scanning Electron Microscopy. The functional properties, namely antioxidant and emulsifying activities, were also assessed. The physicochemical analysis revealed that EPS-P14 is a porous and thermally stable polysaccharide with a degradation temperature of 307 °C. NMR and FT-IR studies identified it as a homogeneous α-D-glucan with mainly α-(1 → 6) glycosidic linkage and some α-(1 → 3) branching. EPS-P14 was highly water-soluble and exhibited strong emulsifying and stabilizing properties in a concentration-dependent manner. Furthermore, EPS-P14 demonstrated significant DPPH scavenging and ferric-reducing capacities. These findings suggest that EPS-P14 is a bioactive polysaccharide with potential effects, which could be a promising natural candidate for prospective application.

A dual catalytic functionalized hollow mesoporous silica-based nanocarrier coated with bacteria-derived exopolysaccharides for targeted delivery of irinotecan to colorectal cancer cells. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 259:129179.

Abstract
In this study, we introduced a multifunctional hollow mesoporous silica-based nanocarrier (HMSN) for the targeted delivery of irinotecan (IRT) to colorectal cancer cells. Due to their large reservoirs, hollow mesoporous silica nanoparticles are suitable platforms for loading significant amounts of drugs for sustained drug release. To respond to pH and redox, HMSNs were functionalized with cerium and iron oxides. Additionally, they were coated with bacterial-derived exopolysaccharide (EPS) as a biocompatible polymer. In vitro analyses revealed that cytotoxicity induced in cancer cells through oxidative stress, mediated by mature nanocarriers (EPS.IRT.Ce/Fe.HMSN), was surprisingly greater than that caused by free drugs. Cerium and iron ions, in synergy with the drug, were found to generate reactive oxygen species when targeting the acidic pH within lysosomes and the tumor microenvironment. This, in turn, triggered cascade reactions, leading to cell death. In vivo experiments revealed that the proposed nanocarriers had no noticeable effect on healthy tissues. These findings indicate the selective delivery of the drug to cancerous tissue and the induction of antioxidant effects due to the dual catalytic properties of cerium in normal cells. Accordingly, this hybrid drug delivery system provides a more effective treatment for colorectal cancer with the potential for cost-effective scaling up.

Exopolysaccharides of lactic acid bacteria: Structure, biological activity, structure-activity relationship, and application in the food industry: A review. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 257:128733.

Abstract
Over the past few decades, researchers have discovered that probiotics play an important role in our daily lives. With the further deepening of research, more and more evidence show that bacterial metabolites have an important role in food and human health, which opens up a new direction for the research of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in the food and pharmaceutical industry. Many LAB have been widely studied because of the ability of exopolysaccharides (EPS). Lactic acid bacteria exopolysaccharides (LAB EPS) not only have great potential in the treatment of human diseases but also can become natural ingredients in the food industry to provide special qualitative structure and flavor. This paper has organized and summarized the biosynthesis, strain selection, production process parameters, structure, and biological activity of LAB EPS, filling in the monotony and incompleteness of previous articles' descriptions of LAB EPS. Therefore, this paper focuses on the general biosynthetic pathway, structural characterization, structure-activity relationship, biological activity of LAB EPS, and their application in the food industry, which will help to deepen people's understanding of LAB EPS and develop new active drugs from LAB EPS. Although the research results are relatively affluent, the low yield, complex structure, and few clinical trials of EPS are still the reasons that hinder its development. Therefore, future knowledge expansion should focus on the regulation of structure, physicochemical properties, function, higher production of EPS, and clinical trial applications, which can further increase the commercial significance and value of EPS. Furthermore, better understanding the structure-function relationship of EPS in food remains a challenge to date.

Abstract
This study systematically investigated the effects of stress conditions including temperature, pH, H2O2, NaCl, antibiotics on the production and in vitro cholesterol-lowering activity of the exopolysaccharide (EPS) synthetized by Schleiferilactobacillus harbinensis Z171. Additionally, the influences of the optimal stress condition combined with different carbon sources on EPS production were examined, shedding light on the structural characteristics, physicochemical properties and bioactivities of EPSs. The results demonstrated that the EPS produced under H2O2 stress was optimal and presented excellent resistance to simulated gastric juice and α-amylase. Three main fractions, denoted as G-EPS1, F-EPS1 and S-EPS1, were isolated by cellulose DEAE-52 chromatography from crude EPSs synthetized using glucose, fructose and sucrose as carbon sources, respectively. Among them, F-EPS1 possessed the highest cholesterol-lowering, antioxidant and hypoglycemic activities, with the highest molecular weight 91.03 kDa, largest particle size 40.14 nm and apparent viscosity 288.2 mPa·s. Three EPSs exhibited irregular sheet-like and granular structures with good thermal stability. Structural characterization of F-EPS1a (a purified fraction from F-EPS1) revealed that it was a mannan mainly composed of →2)-α-D-Manp-(1→, →3)-α-Manp-(1→ and →2,6)-α-D-Manp-(1→ with branch chains containing α-D-Manp-(1→. F-EPS1a has more potential to be a natural cholesterol-lowering, hypoglycemic and antioxidant supplements in the food industry.

Abstract
Exopolysaccharides (EPS) are natural, nontoxic, biocompatible and biodegradable macromolecules produced by microorganisms, including the Lactic acid bacteria, to enhance protection against environmental stress conditions. The current study focused on the encapsulation and functional efficiency of EPS produced by probiotic strains isolated from human milk. Among 27 isolates, the potential high EPS-producing strain Limosilactobacillus reuteri KCTC 14626BP was selected based on biofilm production. The structural Characterization of EPS was performed based on FTIR, NMR and functional properties were determined; further, the encapsulation efficiency of EPS was determined with caffeic acid. The results indicate that L. reuteri produced EPS major component consisting of glucose, galactose and arabinose with the ratio of (0.78:0.16: 0.05). The antioxidant efficiency of EPS-LR was determined on DPPH (60.3 %) and ABTS (48.9 %); EPS showed enhanced functional activities. The absence of toxicity was confirmed based on Caenorhabditis elegans. The EPS-loaded Caffeic acid (CA) EPS-LR indicated spherical capsules with rough surfaces, with sizes ranging from 1.39 to 6.75 μm. These findings indicate that EPS-LR can be applied as a bioactive compound and encapsulating material in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
Exopolysaccharides (EPSs) possess distinctive rheological and physicochemical properties and innovative functionality. This study aimed to investigate the physicochemical, bioactive, and rheological properties of an EPS secreted by Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis C15. EPS-C15 was found to have an average molecular weight of 8.8 × 105 Da and was identified as a hetero-EPS composed of arabinose, xylose, mannose, and glucose with a molar ratio of 2.0:2.7:1.0:21.3, respectively. The particle size and zeta potential represented 311.2 nm and - 12.44 mV, respectively. FITR exhibited that EPS-C15 possessed a typical polysaccharide structure. NMR displayed that EPS-C15 structure is → 3)α-d-Glcvi (1 → 3)α-d-Xylv (1 → 6)α-d-Glciv(1 → 4)α-d-Glc(1 → 3)β-d-Man(1 → 2)α-d-Glci(1 → . EPS-C15 scavenged DPPH and ABTS free radicals with 50.3% and 46.4% capacities, respectively. Results show that the antiproliferative activities of EPS-C15 revealed inhibitions of 49.7% and 88.1% against MCF-7 and Caco-2 cells, respectively. EPS-C15 has antibacterial properties that inhibited Staphylococcus aureus (29.45%), Salmonella typhimurium (29.83%), Listeria monocytogenes (30.33%), and E. coli O157:H7 (33.57%). The viscosity of EPS-C15 decreased as the shear rate increased. The rheological properties of the EPS-C15 were affected by changes in pH levels and the addition of salts. EPS-C15 is a promising biomaterial that has potential applications in various industries, such as food, pharmaceuticals, and healthcare.

Şirin S. Lactic Acid Bacteria-Derived Exopolysaccharides Mitigate the Oxidative Response via the NRF2-KEAP1 Pathway in PC12 Cells. Curr Issues Mol Biol 2023; 45:8071-8090. [PMID: 37886953 PMCID: PMC10605729 DOI: 10.3390/cimb45100510] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2023] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/30/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Parabiotics, including L-EPSs, have been administered to patients with neurodegenerative disorders. However, the antioxidant properties of L-EPSs against H2O2-induced oxidative stress in PC12 cells have not been studied. Herein, we aimed to investigate the antioxidant properties of the L-EPSs, their plausible targets, and their mechanism of action. We first determined the amount of L-EPSs in Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus B3 and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum GD2 using spectrophotometry. Afterwards, we studied their effects on TDH, TOS/TAS, antioxidant enzyme activities, and intracellular ROS level. Finally, we used qRT-PCR and ELISA to determine the effects of L-EPSs on the NRF2-KEAP1 pathway. According to our results, the L-EPS groups exhibited significantly higher total thiol activity, native thiol activity, disulfide activity, TAS levels, antioxidant enzyme levels, and gene expression levels (GCLC, HO-1, NRF2, and NQO1) than did the H2O2 group. Additionally, the L-EPS groups caused significant reductions in TOS levels and KEAP1 gene expression levels compared with those in the H2O2 group. Our results indicate that H2O2-induced oxidative stress was modified by L-EPSs. Thus, we revealed that L-EPSs, which regulate H2O2-induced oxidative stress, could have applications in the field of neurochemistry.

[PMID: 37835248 PMCID: PMC10572761 DOI: 10.3390/foods12193595] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2023] [Revised: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 09/25/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Exopolysaccharides (EPS) are acknowledged for their diverse functional and technological properties. This study presents the characterization of EPS400, an acidic exopolysaccharide sourced from the native probiotic Limosilactobacillus fermentum NCDC400. Notably, this strain has demonstrated previous capabilities in enhancing dairy food texture and displaying in vivo hypocholesterolemic activity. Our investigation aimed to unveil EPS400's potential biological roles, encompassing antioxidant, antibacterial, and immunomodulatory activities. The results underscore EPS400's prowess in scavenging radicals, including the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical, 2,2'-azino-di-(3-ethylbenzthiazoline sulfonic acid) radical, superoxide radical, hydroxyl radical, and chelating activity targeting the ferrous ion. Furthermore, EPS400 displayed substantial antibacterial effectiveness against prevalent food spoilage bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa NCDC105 and Micrococcus luteus. Remarkably, EPS400 exhibited the ability to modulate cytokine production, downregulating pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and nitric oxide, while concurrently promoting the release of anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 within lipopolysaccharide-activated murine primary macrophages. Additionally, EPS400 significantly (p ≤ 0.05) enhanced the phagocytic potential of macrophages. Collectively, our findings spotlight EPS400 as a promising contender endowed with significant antioxidant, antibacterial, and immunomodulatory attributes. These characteristics propose EPS400 as a potential pharmaceutical or bioactive component, with potential applications in the realm of functional food development.

Abstract
Exopolysaccharides (EPS) have attracted a great interest due to their potential health-promoting properties and industrial applications. This study aimed to investigate the physicochemical, rheological, and biological properties of an EPS produced by a potential probiotic strain Enterococcus faecalis 84B. The results show that the extracted EPS, designated EPS-84B, had an average molecular weight of 604.8 kDa, particles size diameter of 322.0 nm, and mainly composed of arabinose and glucose with a molar ratio of 1:2. Furthermore, EPS-84B exhibited a shear-thinning behavior and had a high melting point. The rheological properties of EPS-84B were strongly influenced by the type of salt than by the pH value. EPS-84B displayed ideal viscoelastic properties, with both viscous and storage moduli increasing with frequency. The antioxidant activity of EPS-84B at a concentration of 5 mg/mL was 81.1 % against DPPH and 35.2 % against ABTS. At 5 mg/mL, the antitumor activity of EPS-84B against Caco-2 and MCF-7 cell lines was 74.6 and 38.6 %, respectively. In addition, the antidiabetic activity of EPS-84B towards α-amylase and α-glucosidase was 89.6 and 90.0 %, respectively at 100 μg/mL. The inhibition of foodborne pathogens by EPS-84B was up to 32.6 %. Overall, EPS-84B has promising properties that could be utilized in food and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
The Bacillus amyloliquefaciens RT7 strain was isolated from an extreme acidic environment and identified. The biodegradation capabilities of the strain using different carbon sources (glucose, oleic acid, Tween 80, PEG 200, and the combination of glucose-Tween 80) were evaluated via an indirect impedance technique. The glucose-Tween 80 combination was further studied using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The exopolysaccharide (EPSRT7) that had been produced with the strain when biodegrading glucose-Tween 80 was isolated and characterised using different techniques (GC-MS, HPLC/MSMS, ATR-FTIR, TGA, and DSC), and its molecular weight was estimated. The results show that the average molecular weight of EPSRT7 was approximately 7.0794 × 104 Da and a heteropolysaccharide composed of mannose, glucose, galactose, and xylose (molar ratio, 1:0.5:0.1:0.1) with good thermostability. EPSRT7 showed good emulsifying activity against different natural oils and hydrocarbons at high concentrations (2 mg/mL) and at the studied pH range (3.1-7.2). It also presented good emulsifying activity compared to that of commercial emulsifiers. Lastly, EPSRT7 showed antioxidant capacity for different free radicals, a lack of cytotoxicity, and antioxidant activity at the cellular level. EPSRT7 has promising applications in bioremediation processes and other industrial applications.

Abstract
This study optimized the exopolysaccharides (EPS) production for Lactiplantibacillus plantarum MC5 (Lp. plantarum MC5) and evaluated the resistance to human simulated digestive juices, antioxidant activity in vitro, and rheological properties of EPS-MC5. The results showed that maximum EPS production of 345.98 mg/L (about 1.5-old greater than the initial production) was obtained at optimal conditions of inoculum size (4.0%), incubation time (30 h), incubation temperature (34.0 °C), and initial pH value (6.40). Furthermore, the resisting-digestion capacity of EPS-MC5 after 180 min in α-amylase, simulated gastric juice (pH 2.0, 3.0, 4.0), and simulated intestinal juice (pH 6.8) was 98.59%, 98.62%, 98.78%, 98.86%, and 98.74%, respectively. In addition, the radical scavenging rates of DPPH•, ABTS•, •OH, and ferric-iron reducing power (OD700) of EPS-MC5 were 73.33%, 87.74%, 46.07%, and 1.20, respectively. Furthermore, rheological results showed that the EPS-MC5 had a higher apparent viscosity (3.01 Pa) and shear stress (41.78 Pa), and the viscoelastic modulus (84.02 and 161.02 Pa at the shear frequency of 100 Hz). These results provide a new insight into the application of EPS in human health and functional foods, which could also improve theoretical guidance for the industrial application of EPS.

Influence of anaerobic biotransformation process of agro-industrial waste with Lactobacillus acidophilus on the rheological parameters: case of study of pig manure. Arch Microbiol 2023; 205:99.

Abstract
This study evaluated the rheological behavior of the pig waste biotransformation process to produce lactic acid (LA) and biomass with Lactobacillus acidophilus in a stirred reactor. In addition, cell growth, carbohydrate consumption, and LA production were measured at three different agitation speeds, 100, 150, and 200 rpm at 37 °C, with a reaction time of 52 h. During the development of the process, the kinetic and rheological parameters were obtained using the logistic, Gompertz, generalized Gompertz, Ostwald de Waele, and Herschel-Bulkley mathematical models, respectively. The substrate used was pig manure, to which molasses was added at 12% v/v to increase the concentration of carbohydrates. The results suggest that mass exchange is favorable at low agitation speeds. Nevertheless, the presence of molasses rich in carbohydrates as a carbon source modifies the characteristics of the fluid, dilatant (n > 1) at the beginning of the process to end up as pseudoplastic (n < 1) due to the addition of exopolysaccharides and the modification of the physical structure of the substrate. This effect was confirmed by the Herschel-Bulkley model, which presented a better fit to the data obtained, in addition to finding a direct relationship between viscosity and pH that can be used as variables for the control of bioconversion processes of pig manure into biomass rich in Lactobacillus acidophilus.

Abstract
Rheology modifiers are essential additives in numerous products in a variety of industries. Due to environmental awareness, consumer-oriented industries are interested in novel natural rheological agents that can replace synthetic chemicals. In this study, the chemical composition and rheological properties of a novel exopolysaccharide (EPS) produced by Alteromonas macleodii Mo 169 were investigated. It was mainly composed of uronic acids (50 mol%) and total carbohydrates were 17 % sulfated. The EPS viscosity increased with concentration, and a non-Newtonian shear thinning behavior was found for concentrations above 0.1 wt%. The elastic and viscous moduli indicated a weak gel-like structure above 0.4 wt%. It maintained its shear thinning behavior and viscoelastic properties in the presence of NaCl and CaCl2 for pH range 5-7 and temperatures up to 55 °C. Though the apparent viscosity decreased at pH 3 and 9 and temperatures above 65 °C, the shear thinning behavior was retained. The viscous and viscoelastic properties were recovered after heating (95 °C) and cooling (0 °C), indicating a good thermal stability and recoverability. After high shear force, the solution recovered original rheological properties within few seconds, demonstrating self-healing properties.

Abstract
The urgent task of creating new, enhanced adjuvants is closely related to our comprehension of their mechanisms of action. A few adjuvants have shown sufficient efficacy and low toxicity to be allowed for use in human vaccines, despite the fact that they have a long history and an important function. Adjuvants have long been used without a clear understanding of how precisely they augment the immune response. The rational production of stronger and safer adjuvants has been impeded by this lack of information, which necessitates more mechanistic research to support the development of vaccines. Carbohydrate structures-polygalactans, fructans, β-D-glucans, α-D-glucans, D-galactose, and D-glucose-are desirable candidates for the creation of vaccine adjuvants and immunomodulators because they serve important functions in nature and are often biocompatible, safe, and well tolerated. In this review, we have discussed recent advances in microbial-derived carbohydrate-based adjuvants, their immunostimulatory activity, and the implications of this for vaccine development, along with the critical view on the microbial sources, chemical composition, and biosynthetic pathways.

Abstract
Microbial exopolysaccharides (EPS) are extracellular carbohydrate polymers forming capsules or slimy coating around the cells. EPS can be secreted by various bacterial genera that can help bacterial cells in attachment, environmental adaptation, stress tolerance and are an integral part of microbial biofilms. Several gut commensals (e.g., Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium) produce EPS that possess diverse bioactivities. Bacterial EPS also has extensive commercial applications in the pharmaceutical and food industries. Owing to the structural and functional diversity, genetic and metabolic engineering strategies are currently employed to increase EPS production. Therefore, the current review provides a comprehensive overview of the fundamentals of bacterial exopolysaccharides, including their classification, source, biosynthetic pathways, and functions in the microbial community. The review also provides an overview of the diverse bioactivities of microbial EPS, including immunomodulatory, anti-diabetic, anti-obesity, and anti-cancer properties. Since several gut microbes are EPS producers and gut microbiota helps maintain a functional gut barrier, emphasis has been given to the intestinal-level bioactivities of the gut microbial EPS. Collectively, the review provides a comprehensive overview of microbial bioactive exopolysaccharides.

Abstract
Exopolysaccharide (EPS) from probiotic Enterococcus hirae WEHI01 was isolated and purified by anion exchange chromatography and gel chromatography, the results of which show that the EPS consists of four fractions, namely I01-1, I01-2, I01-3, and I01-4. As the main purification components, I01-2 and I01-4 were preliminarily characterized for their structure and their immunomodulatory activity was explored. The molecular weight of I01-2 was 2.28 × 104 Da, which consists mainly of galactose, and a few other sugars including glucose, arabinose, mannose, xylose, fucose, and rhamnose, while the I01-4 was composed of galactose only and has a molecular weight of 2.59 × 104 Da. Furthermore, the results of an evaluation of immunomodulatory activity revealed that I01-2 and I01-4 could improve the viability of macrophage cells, improve phagocytosis, boost NO generation, and encourage the release of cytokines including TNF-α and IL-6 in RAW 264.7 macrophages. These results imply that I01-2 and I01-4 could improve macrophage-mediated immune responses and might be useful in the production of functional food and medications.

Abstract
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB), a group of Gram-positive microorganisms naturally occurring in fermented food products and used as probiotics, have been gaining the interest of researchers for years. LAB are potent, albeit still not wholly understood, source of bioactive compounds with various functions and activity. Metabolites of LAB, among others, short-chain fatty acids, exopolysaccharides and bacteriocins have promising anticancer potential. Research on the interactions between the bioactive metabolites of LAB and immune mechanisms demonstrated that these substances could exert a strong immunomodulatory effect, which would explain their vast therapeutic potential. The anticancer activity of LAB was confirmed both in vitro and in animal models against cancer cells from various malignancies. LAB inhibit tumor growth through various mechanisms, including antiproliferative activity, induction of apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, as well as through antimutagenic, antiangiogenic and anti-inflammatory effects. The aim of this review was to summarize the most recent data about the anticancer activity of LAB, with particular emphasis on the most promising bioactive compounds with potential clinical application.

Abstract
Polysaccharides are biobased polymers obtained from renewable sources. They exhibit various interesting features including biocompatibility, biodegradability, and nontoxicity. Microbial polysaccharides are produced by several microorganisms including yeast, fungi, algae, and bacteria. Microbial polysaccharides have gained high importance in biotechnology due to their novel physiochemical characteristics and composition. Among microbial polysaccharides, xanthan, alginate, gellan, and dextran are the most commonly reported polysaccharides for the development of biomimetic materials for biomedical applications including targeted drug delivery, wound healing, and tissue engineering. Several chemical and physical cross-linking reactions are performed to increase their technological and functional properties. Owning to the broad-scale applications of microbial polysaccharides, this review aims to summarize the characteristics with different ways of physical/chemical crosslinking for polysaccharide regulation. Recently, several biopolymers have gained high importance due to their biologically active properties. This will help in the formation of bioactive nutraceuticals and functional foods. This review provides a perspective on microbial polysaccharides, with special emphasis given to applications in promising biosectors and the subsequent advancement on the discovery and development of new polysaccharides for adding new products.

Abstract
Fungal polysaccharide is a kind of biomacromolecule with multiple biological activities, which has a wide application prospect and may play an important role in organisms to cope with extreme environments. Herein, we reported an extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) produced by Schizophyllum commune 20R-7-F01 that was isolated from subseafloor sediments at ~2 km below the seafloor, obtained during expedition 337. The monosaccharide of EPS was glucose and its molecular weight was 608.8 kDa. Methylation and NMR analysis indicated that the backbone of the EPS was (1 → 3)-β-D-glucan with a side chain (1 → 6) β-D-glucan linking at every third residue. Bio-active assays revealed that the EPS had potent antioxidant activity and could promote RAW264.7 cells viability and phagocytosis. These results suggest that fungi derived from sediments below seafloor are important and new source of polysaccharides and may be involved in the adaptation of fungi to anoxic subseafloor extreme ecosystem.

Abstract
Bioactive components such as polyphenolics, flavonoids, bioactive peptides, pigments, and essential fatty acids were known to ward off some deadliest diseases. Nutraceuticals are those beneficial compounds that may be food or part of food that has come up with medical or health benefits. Nanoencapsulation and nanofabricated delivery systems are an imminent approach in the field of food sciences. The sustainable fabrication of nutraceuticals and biocompatible active components indisputably enhances the food grade and promotes good health. Nanofabricated delivery systems include carbohydrates-based, lipids (solid and liquid), and proteins-based delivery systems. Solid nano-delivery systems include lipid nanoparticles. Liquid nano-delivery systems include nanoliposomes and nanoemulsions. Physicochemical properties of nanoparticles such as size, charge, hydrophobicity, and targeting molecules affect the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of nano delivery systems. Advance research in toxicity studies is necessary to ensure the safety of the nanofabricated delivery systems, as the safety of nano delivery systems for use in food applications is unknown. Therefore, improved nanotechnology could play a pivotal role in developing functional foods, a contemporary concept assuring the consumers to provide programmed, high-priced, and high-quality research toward nanofabricated delivery systems.

[PMID: 35954093 PMCID: PMC9367902 DOI: 10.3390/foods11152327] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2022] [Revised: 07/26/2022] [Accepted: 08/01/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Two novel exopolysaccharides, named LPB8-0 and LPB8-1, were isolated and purified from Lactiplantibacillus pentosus B8. Moreover, their structure and bioactivities were evaluated through chemical and spectral means. The study results demonstrated that LPB8-0 was primarily composed of mannose and glucose and had an average molecular weight of 1.12 × 104 Da, while LPB8-1 was composed of mannose, glucose, and galactose and had an average molecular weight of 1.78 × 105 Da. Their carbohydrate contents were 96.2% ± 1.0% and 99.1% ± 0.5%, respectively. The backbone of LPB8-1 was composed of (1→2)-linked α-D-Manp and (1→6)-linked α-D-Manp. LPB8-0 and LPB8-1 had semicrystalline structures with good thermal stability (308.3 and 311.7 °C, respectively). SEM results displayed that both LPB8-0 and LPB8-1 had irregular thin-slice shapes and spherical body structures. Additionally, an emulsifying ability assay confirmed that LPB8-0 and LPB8-1 had good emulsifying activity against several edible oils, and this activity was retained under acidic, neutral, and high temperature conditions. Furthermore, an antioxidant assay confirmed that LPB8-1 had stronger scavenging activity than LPB8-0. Overall, these results provide a theoretical basis for the potential application of these two novel exopolysaccharides as natural antioxidants and emulsifiers in the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Abstract
Viral infections are a major cause of severe, fatal diseases worldwide. Recently, these infections have increased due to demanding contextual circumstances, such as environmental changes, increased migration of people and product distribution, rapid demographic changes, and outbreaks of novel viruses, including the COVID-19 outbreak. Internal variables that influence viral immunity have received attention along with these external causes to avert such novel viral outbreaks. The gastrointestinal microbiome (GIM), particularly the present probiotics, plays a vital role in the host immune system by mediating host protective immunity and acting as an immune regulator. Bacteriocins possess numerous health benefits and exhibit antagonistic activity against enteric pathogens and immunobiotics, thereby inhibiting viral infections. Moreover, disrupting the homeostasis of the GIM/host immune system negatively affects viral immunity. The interactions between bacteriocins and infectious viruses, particularly in COVID-19, through improved host immunity and physiology are complex and have not yet been studied, although several studies have proven that bacteriocins influence the outcomes of viral infections. However, the complex transmission to the affected sites and siRNA defense against nuclease digestion lead to challenging clinical trials. Additionally, bacteriocins are well known for their biofunctional properties and underlying mechanisms in the treatment of bacterial and fungal infections. However, few studies have shown the role of probiotics-derived bacteriocin against viral infections. Thus, based on the results of the previous studies, this review lays out a road map for future studies on bacteriocins for treating viral infections.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Exopolysaccharides (EPSs) are high-value functional biomaterials mainly produced by bacteria and fungi, with nutraceutical, therapeutic and industrial potentials. OBJECTIVES This study sought to characterize and assess the biological properties of the EPS produced by the yeast Papiliotrema terrestris PT22AV. METHODS After extracting the yeast's DNA and its molecular identification, the EPS from P. terrestris PT22AV strain was extracted and its physicochemical properties (structural, morphological, monosaccharide composition and molecular weight) were characterized. The EPS's in vitro biological activities and in vivo wound healing potential were also evaluated. RESULTS The obtained EPS was water-soluble and revealed an average molecular weight (Mw) of 202 kDa. Mannose and glucose with 97% and 3% molar percentages, respectively, constituted the EPS. In vitro antibacterial activity analysis of the extracted EPS exhibited antibacterial activity (>80%) against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Staphylococcus epidermidis at a concentration of 2 mg/mL. The EPS showed cytocompatibility against the human fibroblast and macrophage cell lines and the animal studies showed a dose-dependent wound healing capacity of the EPS with higher wound closure at 10 mg/mL compared to negative and positive control after 14 days. CONCLUSION The EPS from P. terrestris PT22AV could serve as a promising source of biocompatible macromolecules with potential for skin wound healing.

Abstract
Exopolysaccharides (EPS) produced by lactic acid bacteria are complicated polymers with industrial applications. LAB were isolated, screened for EPS production, and their probiotic properties determined. The anti-biofilm activity of EPS was investigated. Safety of EPS-producing isolate was investigated and it was molecularly identified through 16S rRNA sequencing. Finally, anti-biofilm and emulsification activity of EPS was studied and it was characterized using FT-IR, TGA, 1H-NMR, DLS and HPLC. Thirteen LAB were isolated from dairy products. They showed probiotic characteristics like acid resistance (0-6.51 CFU ml-1) hydrophobicity (8-54.04%), autoaggregation (0% [t = 2 h]-99.8% [t = 24 h]) and coaggregation with food borne pathogens. Among them, Enterococcus durans DU1 had ability to produce EPS. EPS of Enterococcus durans DU1 showed antibiofilm activity against Y. enterocolitica (24.06-51.36%), S. aureus (12.33-49.6%), and B. cereus (11.66-27.16%). FT-IR showed this EPS had characteristic absorption peaks due to the presence of the pyran ring of sugars. 1H NMR showed that EPS has N-acetyl, methyl, and alkyl groups in its structure. The HPLC analysis showed that EPS is a heteropolysaccharide and consists of sucrose, glucose, and fructose. EPS showed significant thermal stability (20% weight loss) under 300 °C and zeta potential of - 18.1 mV. This EPS can be used in the food industry with no adverse effect on consumers.

Abstract
The novel exopolysaccharide EPS-E8, secreted by Pediococcus pentosaceus E8, was obtained by anion-exchange and gel filtration chromatography. Structural analyses identified EPS-E8 as a heteropolysaccharide containing mannose, glucose, and galactose. Its major backbone consists of →2)-α-D-Manp-(1→2,6)-α-D-Glcp-(1→6)-α-D-Manp-(1→, and its molecular weight is 5.02 × 104 g/mol. Using atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy, many spherical and irregular reticular-like shapes were observed in the microstructure of EPS-E8. EPS-E8 has outstanding thermal stability (305.7°C). Both the zeta potential absolute value and average particle diameter increased gradually with increasing concentration. Moreover, at a concentration of 10 mg/ml, the antioxidant capacities of, 1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), ABTS and hydroxyl radical were 50.62 ± 0.5%, 52.17 ± 1.4%, and 58.91 ± 0.7%, respectively. EPS-E8 possesses excellent emulsifying properties against several food-grade oils, and its activity is retained under various conditions (temperature, pH, and ionic strength). Finally, we found that EPS-E8 as a polysaccharide-based coating could reduce the weight loss and malondialdehyde (MDA) content of strawberry, as well as preserving the vitamin C and soluble solid content during storage at 20°C. Together, the results support the potential application of EPS-E8 as an emulsifier, and a polysaccharide-based coating in fruit preservation.

Abstract
Milk fermentation by lactic acid bacteria both enhances its nutritional value and provides probiotic strains to correct the intestinal microflora. Here, we show the comparative analysis of milk fermented with the new strain, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum AG10, isolated from silage and the industrial strain Lactobacillus delbrukii subs. bulgaricus. While the milk acidification during fermentation with L. plantarum AG10 was lower compared with L. bulgaricus, milk fermented with L. plantarum AG10 after a 14-day storage period retained a high level of viable cells and was characterized by an increased content of exopolysaccharides and higher viscosity. The increased EPS production led to clot formation with higher density on microphotographs and increased firmness and cohesiveness of the product compared with L. bulgaricus-fermented milk. Furthermore, the L. plantarum AG10-fermented milk exhibited increased radical-scavenging activity assuming lower fat oxidation during storage. Taken together, these data suggest that L. plantarum AG10 seems to be a promising starter culture for dairy products with lowered levels of lactic acid, which is important for people with increased gastric acid formation.

Abstract
In the present work, a novel exopolysaccharide EPS-3791 was extracted and purified from a salt-tolerant yeast, Zygosaccharomyces rouxii. Structural analyses showed that EPS-3791 was composed of galactose, glucose and mannose in a molar ration of 1.00: 4.25: 13.30 with a molecular weight of 64.412 kDa. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy manifested the main functional groups, α- and β- configurations. Methylated analysis indicated T-Manp-(1→, →2)-Glcp-(1 → and → 2,6)-Manp-(1 → were the main linkages. 800 MHz nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy demonstrated the EPS-3791 structure of a novel main chain and branched chain. Atomic force microscope and scanning electron microscope revealed a homogeneous and uniform porous structure. In addition, EPS-3791 was proven to have cryoprotective and freeze-drying protective effects on Lactococcus lactis, and exhibited better protective performance than that of trelahose during freeze-drying of L. lactis, suggesting that EPS-3791 could be developed into cryoprotectant or lyoprotectant applied in food industry.

Abstract
Recent signs of progress in functional foods and nutraceuticals highlighted the favorable impact of bioactive molecules on human health and longevity. As an outcome of the fermentation process, an increasing interest is developed in bee products. Bee bread (BB) is a different product intended for humans and bees, resulting from bee pollen's lactic fermentation in the honeycombs, abundant in polyphenols, nutrients (vitamins and proteins), fatty acids, and minerals. BB conservation is correlated to bacteria metabolites, mainly created by Pseudomonas spp., Lactobacillus spp., and Saccharomyces spp., which give lactic acid bacteria the ability to outperform other microbial groups. Because of enzymatic transformations, the fermentation process increases the content of new compounds. After the fermentation process is finalized, the meaningful content of lactic acid and several metabolites prevent the damage caused by various pathogens that could influence the quality of BB. Over the last few years, there has been an increase in bee pollen fermentation processes to unconventional dietary and functional supplements. The use of the chosen starters improves the bioavailability and digestibility of bioactive substances naturally found in bee pollen. As a consequence of enzymatic changes, the fermentation process enhances BB components and preserves them against loss of characteristics. In this aspect, the present review describes the current biotechnological advancements in the development of BB rich in beneficial components derived from bee pollen fermentation and its use as a food supplement and probiotic product with increased shelf life and multiple health benefits.

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.

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.
