Abstract
Penicillium exopolysaccharide (EPS) inhibits galactose lectins and enhances immunity. However, EPS production is low and its synthesis mechanism remains unclear. Penicillium EF-2 strains with high EPS production were selected for this study, and Penicillium fermentation conditions were subsequently improved. The optimal culture conditions were 30 g/L lactose, 6 g/L yeast extract powder, 4 d seed age, 10 % inoculation amount, 3 d of secondary fermentation time, and the final EPS yield was 3.97 g/L. UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS was used to explore the mechanism of EPS synthesis at the metabolic level. Optimal carbon source: lactose and optimal nitrogen source: yeast extract can provide precursors for EPS synthesis through related metabolic pathways. Moreover, regulating the energy, vitamin, and lipid metabolic pathways created favourable conditions for EPS synthesis and secretion. These findings explain the mechanism of EPS synthesis at the metabolic level and provide a theoretical basis for optimising and industrialising EPS production.

Abstract
An exopolysaccharide (EPS)-producing strain, identified as Weissella cibaria HDL-4, was isolated from litchi. After separation and purification, the structure and properties of HDL-4 EPS were characterized. The molecular weight of HDL-4 EPS was determined to be 1.9 × 10⁶ Da, with glucose as its monosaccharide component. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses indicated that HDL-4 EPS was a D-glucan with α-(1→6) and α-(1→4) glycosidic bonds. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed that HDL-4 EPS was amorphous. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM) observations showed that HDL-4 EPS possesses pores, irregular protrusions, and a smooth layered structure. Additionally, HDL-4 EPS demonstrated significant thermal stability, remaining stable below 288 °C. It exhibited a strong metal ion adsorption activity, emulsification activity, antioxidant activity, and water-retaining property. Therefore, HDL-4 EPS can be extensively utilized in the food and pharmaceutical industries as an additive and prebiotic.

Abstract
Microalgae extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) are complex high-molecular-weight polymers and the physicochemical properties of EPS strongly affect the core features of microalgae cultivation and resource utilization. Revealing the key roles of EPS in microalgae life-cycle processes in an interesting and novelty topic to achieve energy-efficient practical application of microalgae. This review found that EPS showed positive effect in non-gas uptake, extracellular electron transfer, toxicity resistance and heterotrophic symbiosis, but negative impact in gas transfer and light utilization during microalgae cultivation. For biomass harvesting, EPS favored biomass flocculation and large-size cell self-flocculation, but unfavored small size microalgae self-flocculation, membrane filtration, charge neutralization and biomass dewatering. During bioproducts extraction, EPS exhibited positive impact in extractant uptake, but the opposite effect in cellular membrane permeability and cell rupture. Future research on microalgal EPS were also identified, which offer suggestions for comprehensive understanding of microalgal EPS roles in various scenarios.

Abstract
Cancer treatment faces numerous challenges, such as inadequate drug targeting, steep price tags, grave toxic side effects, and limited therapeutic efficacy. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a safe and effective new drug to combat cancer. Microbial polysaccharides, complex and diverse biological macromolecules, exhibit significant microbial variability and uniqueness. Studies have shown that terrestrial microbial polysaccharides possess a wide range of biological activities, including immune enhancement, antioxidant properties, antiviral effects, anti-tumour potential, and hypoglycemic functions. To delve deeper into the structure-activity relationship of these land-based microbial polysaccharides against cancer, we conducted a comprehensive review and analysis of anti-cancer literature published between 2020 and 2024. The anticancer efficacy of terrestrial microbial polysaccharides is influenced by multiple factors, including the microbial species, existing form, chemical structure, and polysaccharide purity. According to the literature, an optimal molecular weight and good water solubility are essential for demonstrating anticancer activity. Furthermore, the addition of mannose and galactose has been found to significantly enhance the anticancer properties of these polysaccharides. These insights will serve as a valuable reference for future research and progress in the field of cancer drug therapy, particularly with regards to terrestrial microbial polysaccharides.

Abstract
The exopolymer (ESPp) was obtained from Bacillus licheniformis IDN-EC, composed of a polyglutamic acid and polyglycerol phosphate chain O-substituted with αGal moieties (αGal/αGlcNH2 3:1 molar ratio) and with a 5000 Da molecular weight. The cytotoxicity activity of EPSp was determined by reducing the MTT (3-[4,5-dimethyl-thiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) to formazan on HeLa cells. This EPS did not show cytotoxicity against the tested cell line. The ESPp presented great advantages as an antioxidant with free radical scavenging activities (1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl radical (DPPH),hydroxyl radical (OH), and superoxide anion (O2-)) (65 ± 1.2%, 98.7 ± 1.9%, and 97 ± 1.7%), respectively. Moreover, EPSp increased the enzyme activity for catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) in HeLa cells (CAT, 2.6 ± 0.24 U/mL; and GSH-Px, 0.75 ± 0.3 U/L). The presence of ESPp showed a significant protective effect against H2O2 in the cell line studied, showing great viability (91.8 ± 2.8, 89.9 ± 2.9, and 93.5 ± 3.6%). The EPSp presented good emulsifying activity, only for vegetable oils, olive oil (50 ± 2.1%) and sesame (72 ± 3%). Sesame was effective compared to commercials products, Triton X-100 (52.38 ± 1.6%), Tween 20 (14.29 ± 1.1%), and sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) (52.63 ± 1.6%). Furthermore, the EPS produced at 0.6 M has potential for environmental applications, such as the removal of hazardous materials by emulsification whilst resulting in positive health effects such as antioxidant activity and non-toxicity. EPSp is presented as a good exopolysaccharide for various applications.

Abstract
The endophytic fungi, Epicoccum sorghinum AMFS4 was investigated for its metabolic components and composition of bioactive exopolysaccharides (EPS). Metabolic analysis of the ethyl acetate extract majorly detected sugars derivatives such as, 4-Cholesten-3-one semicarbazone (20.9%), d-Fructose (18.96%), and α-d-Galactopyranosiduronicacid (1.71%). The growth curve and EPS yield were determined as 12.22 ± 1.02 g/L and 7.41 ± 0.32 g/L (dry weight) respectively on day 8. The deproteined EPS has been characterised with pyranose ring linked by α-glycosidic bonds, composing fructose, galactose and glucose monosaccharides validated by HPLC. Total sugar content was found to be 93.18 ± 0.81% with detection of proteins and uronate. The viscous EPS appeared filamentous under SEM observation and behaves as emulsifier with notable antioxidant properties. Priming of EPS on tomato seeds showed early induction of secondary rooting than in the control seedlings. Thus, E. sorghinum AMFS4 synthesises bioactive EPS with simple carbohydrate structure, good water absorption and significant metabolic influence on seed germination.

Abstract
The fermentation of the high-viscosity polysaccharide WL gum has always been associated with poor mass transfer. Appropriate impeller configurations are key factors in maintaining homogeneity and sufficient mass transfer conditions. Therefore, a flat-folded disc turbine impeller (FFDT) taking into account both the reduced cavitation effect and the increased contact area was designed. Besides, a curved cross impeller (CC) and a fishbone-shaped impeller (FS) generating axial flow were also designed. The energy consumption and efficiency of the designed impellers and eight reported impellers were evaluated through fermentation and principal component analysis (PCA). Compared to the commonly-used six-blade flat-blade disc turbine (FBDT), the ungassed power number of FFDT was reduced by 50 %. Combinations of six-blade Brumajin impeller (BM) + FFDT and CC + FFDT produced high WL gum production and viscosity (34.0 g/L, 35.50 g/L, and 62.64 Pa·s, 61.68 Pa·s, respectively) and were suitable impellers for WL biosynthesis. WL gum from BM + FFDT showed higher viscosity, viscoelasticity, and molecular weight than that from FBDT + FBDT. In addition, fewer amino acids and pyruvic acid intermediates were formed using BM + FFDT, indicating a greater metabolic flux towards WL gum synthesis. This work provided an important reference for the design of impellers in high-viscosity fermentation systems.

Abstract
Scleroglucan is a notable member of the β-glucan microbial polysaccharides with a long tradition of industrial and therapeutic use. The local strain, previously identified as Athelia rolfsii TEMG MH 236106 produced an appreciable amount of scleroglucan using glucose as a carbon source and yeast extract as a nitrogen source. Plackett-Burman design was employed to effectively screen critical medium composition, culture, and fermentation conditions. Athelia rolfsii TEMG MH 236106 produced the maximum amount of scleroglucan (18.12 g/L) with a 45.3 % glucose conversion. Out of the eleven variables, the most effective factors showing a high level of significance are as follows: glucose, yeast extract, citric acid, inoculum disc numbers, culture volume and incubation time. An update to maximize scleroglucan production in the central composite design for four parameters (glucose and yeast extract concentrations, disc number, medium volume and incubation time) with 31 runs was applied and the production of scleroglucan reached its maximum at 31.56 g/L with 78.9 % glucose conversion. Three models of Sclg-5-fluorouracil complexes have been employed to study in vitro drug release investigations. Hence, the Sclg-5-FU (5 and 10 mg/mL) models appeared to be the most suitable for drug administration due to their concentration and distribution within capsules.

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.

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
The physicochemical properties and applications of polysaccharides are highly dependent on their chemical structures, including the monosaccharide composition, degree of substitution, and position of substituent groups in the backbone. The occurrence of side groups or side chains in the chain backbone of polysaccharides is often an essential factor influencing their conformational and physicochemical properties. Welan gum produced by the fermentation of Sphingomonas sp. ATCC 31555 microorganisms has been widely used in food, construction, and oil drilling fields. While understanding the physicochemical properties of welan gum solution has been highly developed, there is still little information about the determination strategy of the glycosyl side groups in welan gum. In this study, the NMR method was established to quantitatively determine the substituent groups in the chain backbone of welan gum. The delicate chemical structures of welan gum obtained at different fermentation conditions were clarified. The composition and content of side substituents were also identified by high-performance liquid chromatography to confirm the accuracy of NMR analysis. The quantitative determination of substituent groups in gellan gum based on NMR analysis was also elaborated for comparison. This work provides insights for profoundly understanding the structure-function relationship of welan gum.

Abstract
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) and exopolysaccharides (EPSs) belong to a class of abundant biopolymers produced by various fermenting microorganisms. These biocompounds have high value-added potential and can be produced concurrently. Co-production of PHAs and EPSs is a strategy employed by researchers to reduce costs associated with large-scale production. EPSs and PHAs are non-toxic, biocompatible, and biodegradable, making them suitable for various industrial sectors, including packaging and the medical and pharmaceutical industries. These biopolymers can be derived from agro-industrial residues, thus contributing to the bioeconomy by producing high-value-added products. This review investigates approaches for simultaneously synthesizing PHAs and EPSs using different carbon sources and microorganisms.

Investigation of exopolysaccharide formation and its impact on anaerobic succinate production with Vibrio natriegens. Microb Biotechnol 2024; 17:e14277.

Abstract
Vibrio natriegens is an emerging host for biotechnology due to its high growth and substrate consumption rates. In industrial processes typically fed-batch processes are applied to obtain high space-time yields. In this study, we established an aerobic glucose-limited fed-batch fermentation with the wild type (wt) of V. natriegens which yielded biomass concentrations of up to 28.4 gX L-1 . However, we observed that the viscosity of the culture broth increased by a factor of 800 at the end of the cultivation due to the formation of 157 ± 20 mg exopolysaccharides (EPS) L-1 . Analysis of the genomic repertoire revealed several genes and gene clusters associated with EPS formation. Deletion of the transcriptional regulator cpsR in V. natriegens wt did not reduce EPS formation, however, it resulted in a constantly low viscosity of the culture broth and altered the carbohydrate content of the EPS. A mutant lacking the cps cluster secreted two-fold less EPS compared to the wt accompanied by an overall low viscosity and a changed EPS composition. When we cultivated the succinate producer V. natriegens Δlldh Δdldh Δpfl Δald Δdns::pycCg (Succ1) under anaerobic conditions on glucose, we also observed an increased viscosity at the end of the cultivation. Deletion of cpsR and the cps cluster in V. natriegens Succ1 reduced the viscosity five- to six-fold which remained at the same level observed at the start of the cultivation. V. natriegens Succ1 ΔcpsR and V. natriegens Succ1 Δcps achieved final succinate concentrations of 51 and 46 g L-1 with a volumetric productivity of 8.5 and 7.7 gSuc L-1 h-1 , respectively. Both strains showed a product yield of about 1.4 molSuc molGlc -1 , which is 27% higher compared with that of V. natriegens Succ1 and corresponds to 81% of the theoretical maximum.

Abstract
Bacteria are well-known to synthesize high molecular weight polysaccharides excreted in extracellular domain, which constitute their protective microenvironment. Several bacterial exopolysaccharides (EPS) are commercially available for skincare applications in cosmetic products due to their unique structural features, conferring valuable biological and/or textural properties. This review aims to give an overview of bacterial EPS, an important group of macromolecules used in cosmetics as actives and functional ingredients. For this purpose, the main chemical characteristics of EPS are firstly described, followed by the basics of the development of cosmetic ingredients. Then, a focus on EPS production, including upstream and downstream processes, is provided. The diversity of EPS used in the cosmetic industry, and more specifically of marine-derived EPS is highlighted. Marine bacteria isolated from extreme environments are known to produce EPS. However, their production processes are highly challenging due to high or low temperatures; yield must be improved to reach economically viable ingredients. The biological properties of marine-derived EPS are then reviewed, resulting in the highlight of the challenges in this field.

Abstract
Recently, degradable biopolymers have become increasingly important as potential environmentally friendly biomaterials, providing a wide range of applications in various fields. Bacterial exopolysaccharides (EPSs) are biomacromolecules, which due to their unique properties have found applications in biomedicine, foodstuff, textiles, cosmetics, petroleum, pharmaceuticals, nanoelectronics, and environmental remediation. One of the important commercial polysaccharides produced on an industrial scale is xanthan. In recent years, the range of its application has expanded significantly. Bacterial cellulose (BC) is another unique EPS with a rapidly increasing range of applications. Due to the great prospects for their practical application, the development of their highly efficient production remains an important task. The present review summarizes the strategies for the cost-effective production of such important biomacromolecules as xanthan and BC and demonstrates for the first time common approaches to their efficient production and to obtaining new functional materials for a wide range of applications, including wound healing, drug delivery, tissue engineering, environmental remediation, nanoelectronics, and 3D bioprinting. In the end, we discuss present limitations of xanthan and BC production and the line of future research.

Abstract
In microorganisms, different from primary metabolism for cellular growth, secondary metabolism is for ecological interactions and stress responses and an important source of natural products widely used in various areas such as pharmaceutics and food additives. With advancements of sequencing technologies and bioinformatics tools, a large number of biosynthetic gene clusters of secondary metabolites have been discovered from microbial genomes. However, due to challenges from the difficulty of genome-scale pathway reconstruction and the limitation of conventional flux balance analysis (FBA) on secondary metabolism, the quantitative modeling of secondary metabolism is poorly established, in contrast to that of primary metabolism. This review first discusses current efforts on the reconstruction of secondary metabolic pathways in genome-scale metabolic models (GSMMs), as well as related FBA-based modeling techniques. Additionally, potential extensions of FBA are suggested to improve the prediction accuracy of secondary metabolite production. As this review posits, biosynthetic pathway reconstruction for various secondary metabolites will become automated and a modeling framework capturing secondary metabolism onset will enhance the predictive power. Expectedly, an improved FBA-based modeling workflow will facilitate quantitative study of secondary metabolism and in silico design of engineering strategies for natural product production.

Abstract
In this study, an exopolysaccharide (EPS)-producing strain of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum HDC-01 was isolated from sauerkraut, and the structure, properties and biological activity of the studied EPS were assessed. The molecular weight of the isolated EPS is 2.505 × 106 Da. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FT-IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) results showed that the EPS was composed of glucose/glucopyranose subunits linked by an α-(1 → 6) glycosidic bond and contained an α-(1 → 3) branching structure. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed the amorphous nature of the EPS. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) showed that the isolated EPS had a smooth and compact surface with several protrusions of varying lengths and irregularly shaped material. Moreover, the studied EPS showed good thermal stability, water holding capacity, and milk coagulation ability and promoted the growth of probiotics. L. plantarum EPS may be used as prebiotics in the fields of food and medicine.

Abstract
Polysaccharides derived from lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have widespread industrial applications owing to their excellent safety profile and numerous biological properties. The antioxidant activity of exopolysaccharides (EPS) offers defense against disease conditions caused by oxidative stress. Several genes and gene clusters are involved in the biosynthesis of EPS and the determination of their structures, which play an important role in modulating their antioxidant ability. Under conditions of oxidative stress, EPS are involved in the activation of the nonenzyme (Keap1-Nrf2-ARE) response pathway and enzyme antioxidant system. The antioxidant activity of EPS is further enhanced by the targeted alteration of their structures, as well as by chemical methods. Enzymatic modification is the most commonly used method, though physical and biomolecular methods are also frequently used. A detailed summary of the biosynthetic processes, antioxidant mechanisms, and modifications of LAB-derived EPS is presented in this paper, and their gene-structure-function relationship has also been explored.

Abstract
A large amount of vegetable-fruit-based waste (VFBW) belonging to agricultural waste is produced around the world every year, imposing a huge burden on the environment and sustainable development. VFBW contains a lot of water and useful organic compounds (e.g., cellulose, minerals, starch, proteins, organic acids, lipids, and soluble sugars). Taking into account the composition characteristics and circular economy of VFBW, many new emerging conversion technologies for the treatment of VFBW (such as hydrothermal gasification, ultrasound-assisted extraction, and synthesis of bioplastics) have been developed. This review summarizes the current literature discussing the technical parameters, process, mechanism, and characteristics of various emerging conversion methods, as well as analyzing the application, environmental impact, and bio-economy of by-products from the conversion process, to facilitate solutions to the key problems of engineering cases using these methods. The shortcomings of the current study and the direction of future research are also highlighted in the review.

Abstract
Rhodosporidiobolus odoratus, one of the oleaginous red yeasts, is gaining biotechnological importance for their ability to produce microbial lipids and carotenoids. However, to date, the genomic resource underling lipid and carotenoid biosynthesis in R. odoratus has not been reported. Here, we reported the first genome assembly of R. odoratus using a combination of PacBio and Illumina techniques. The final genome assembly is 23.74 Mb in size, containing 52 scaffolds with a N50 length of 1200,460 bp and a GC content of 56.90%. Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy Orthologs (BUSCO) assessment showed that our assembly contains 94.23% of Basidiomycota universal single-copy orthologs. The genome was predicted to contain 4986 protein-coding genes, 4967 of which were functionally annotated. Metabolomic profiling identified 574 lipids, 3 carotenoids, and 208 volatile organic compounds synthesized by R. odoratus. Integrative analysis of genomics and metabolomics provides insights into the biosynthesis of lipid, carotenoid, and other bioactive compounds in R. odoratus. Collectively, the results presented herein greatly enhance our understanding of R. odoratus in lipids and carotenoids biosynthesis, and thus further accelerate its fundamental molecular investigations and biotechnological applications.

Abstract
Fucosylated oligosaccharides have promising prospects in various fields. In this study, a fucosylated trisaccharide (GFG) was separated from the acidolysis products of exopolysaccharides from Clavibacter michiganensis M1. Structural characterization demonstrated that GFG consists of glucose, galactose, and fucose, with a molecular weight of 488 Da. Nuclear magnetic resonance analysis showed that it has a different structure than that of 2'-fucosyllactose (2'-FL), even though they have the same monosaccharide composition. In vitro prebiotic experiments were conducted to evaluate the differences in the utilization of three selected carbohydrates by fourteen bacterial strains. In comparison with 2'-FL, GFG could be utilized by more beneficial bacteria, leading to generate more short-chain fatty acids. Moreover, GFG could not promote the proliferation of Escherichia coli. This work describes a novel fucosylated oligosaccharide and its preparation method, and the obtained trisaccharide may serve as a promising candidate for fucosylated human milk oligosaccharides.

Abstract
The polysaccharide WL gum is produced by the marine microorganism Sphingomonas sp. WG and presents great commercial utility potential in many industries especially in oil industries. However, the high fermentation cost limits its wide application. Therefore, an efficient production system at a lower cost was established using beet molasses to partially replace the commonly used carbon sources. Four different molasses were screened and their composition was investigated. One-factor design and RSM statistical analysis were employed to optimize the WL gum fermentation medium. The effects of molasses on the rheological properties and gene expression of WL gum were also investigated. The results showed that the pretreated beet molasses generated both high broth viscosity and WL gum production (12.94 Pa·s and 11.16 g/L). Heavy metal ions and ash were found to be the key factors in unpretreated and pretreated molasses affecting WL production. The cost-efficient production medium contained (g/L): sucrose 61.79, molasses 9.95, yeast extract 1.23, K2HPO4 1, MgSO4 0.1, ZnSO4 0.1 and the WL gum production reached 40.25 ± 1.15 g/L. The WL gum product WL-molasses showed the higher apparent viscosity, and viscous modulus and elastic modulus than WL-sucrose and WL-mix, which might be related to its highest molecular mass. The higher expressional level of genes such as pgm, ugp, ugd, rmlA, welS, and welG in WL gum synthesis in the mixed carbon source medium caused the high production and broth viscosity. This work provided a cost-efficient method for WL gum production.

Abstract
In the present study, corn starch, cob, and straw were biorefined and used as feedstocks for the production of pullulan. The titer and molecular weight (Mw) of pullulan significantly decreased when corn cob and straw hydrolysates were utilized by the parental strain Aureobasidium pullulans CCTCC M 2012259 (PS). Based on adaptive laboratory evolution of PS, an evolved strain A. pullulans EV6 with strong adaptability to the whole corn biomass hydrolysate and high capability of pullulan biosynthesis was screened. Batch pullulan fermentation results indicated that EV6 produced an increased titer of pullulan with a higher Mw than PS. The underlying reasons for these increases were revealed by assaying key enzymes activities and measuring intracellular uridine diphosphate glucose levels. Subsequently, whole-crop biorefinery of corn biomass was conducted, and the results confirmed that whole corn crop has immense potential for efficient pullulan production.

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 promising alternatives to synthetic polymers in a variety of applications. Their high production costs, however, limit their use despite their outstanding properties. The use of low-cost substrates such as agro-industrial wastes in their production, can help to boost their market competitiveness. In this work, an alternative low-cost culture medium (CSLM) was developed for EPS production by Rhizobium viscosum CECT908, containing sugarcane molasses (60 g/L) and corn steep liquor (10 mL/L) as sole ingredients. This medium allowed the production of 6.1 ± 0.2 g EPS/L, twice the amount produced in the standard medium (Syn), whose main ingredients were glucose and yeast extract. This is the first report of EPS production by R. viscosum using agro-industrial residues as sole substrates. EPSCSLM and EPSSyn exhibited a similar carbohydrate composition, mainly 4-linked galactose, glucose and mannuronic acid. Although both EPS showed a good fit to the Herschel-Bulkley model, EPSCSLM displayed a higher yield stress and flow consistency index when compared with EPSSyn, due to its higher apparent viscosity. EPSCSLM demonstrated its potential use in Microbial Enhanced Oil Recovery by enabling the recovery of nearly 50% of the trapped oil in sand-pack column experiments using a heavy crude oil.

Abstract
During a prokaryotic diversity study in Añana Salt Valley, a new Rhodobacteraceae member, designated ASV31T, was isolated from Santa Engracia spring water. It was extremely halotolerant, tolerating up to 23% NaCl, and facultatively alkaliphilic, growing at pH 6.5–9.5 (optimum at 7.0–9.5). The isolate was a Gram-negative, rod-shaped, aerobic and non-motile bacterium that formed beige-to-pink colonies on marine agar. According to a 16S rRNA gene-based phylogenetic analysis, strain ASV31T forms a distinct branch of the family Rhodobacteraceae, with Thioclava pacifica DSM 10166T being its closest type strain (95.3%). This was confirmed with a phylogenomic tree and the values of ANI (73.9%), dDDH (19.3%), AAI (63.5%) and POCP (56.0%), which were below the genus/species level boundary. Additionally, an ability to degrade aromatic compounds and biosynthesise secondary metabolites was suggested by the genome of strain ASV31T. Distinguishing fatty acid profiles and polar lipid content were also observed. The genome size was 3.6 Mbp, with a DNA G+C content of 65.7%. Based on the data obtained, it was considered that strain ASV31T (=CECT 30309T = LMG 32242T) represents a new species of a new genus in the family Rhodobacteraceae, for which the name Anianabacter salinae gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 29:76611-76625. [PMID: 36166130 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-022-23198-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2022] [Accepted: 09/19/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
A variety of both small and large biologically intriguing compounds can be found abundantly in the marine environment. Researchers are particularly interested in marine bacteria because they can produce classes of bioactive secondary metabolites that are structurally diverse. The main secondary metabolites produced by marine bacteria are regarded as steroids, alkaloids, peptides, terpenoids, biopolymers, and polyketides. The global urbanization leads to the increased use of organic pollutants that are both persistent and toxic for humans, other life forms and tend to biomagnified in environment. The issue can be addressed, by using marine microbial biopolymers with ability for increased bioremediation. Amongst biopolymers, the exopolysaccharides (EPS) are the most prominent under adverse environmental stress conditions. The present review emphasizes the use of EPS as a bio-flocculent for wastewater treatment, as an adsorbent for the removal of textile dye and heavy metals from industrial effluents. The biofilm-forming ability of EPS helps with soil reclamation and reduces soil erosion. EPS are an obvious choice being environmentally friendly and cost-effective in processes for developing sustainable technology. However, a better understanding of EPS biosynthetic pathways and further developing novel sustainable technologies is desirable and certainly will pave the way for efficient usage of EPS for environment cleanup.

Int J Biol Macromol 2022; 221:1373-1383. [PMID: 36151616 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2022.09.114] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2022] [Revised: 09/06/2022] [Accepted: 09/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
Although exopolysaccharide (EPS) has been applied to various fields, EPS for UVR-mediated oxidative stress repair still needs further exploration. In this study, a novel EPS was isolated from the fermentation medium of Bacillus sp. QDR3-1 and its yield was 4.8 g/L (pH 8.0, 12 % glucose, 30 °C and 6 % NaCl). The pure fraction (named EPS-M1) was purified by DEAE-cellulose and Sephadex G-100 column. EPS-M1 was a heteropolysaccharide composed of Man, Glc, Gal, and Fuc with a molecular weight of 33.8 kDa. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observed a rough surface and reticular structure of EPS-M1, and EPS-M1 formed spherical aggregates in aqueous solution observed in atomic force microscopy (AFM). Thermal analysis revealed that the degradation temperature of EPS-M1 was 306 °C. Moreover, methylation and NMR analysis determined that EPS-M1 was consisted of →3)-Manp-(1→, →2,6)-Manp-(1→, →4,6)-Glcp-(1→, →3)-Glcp-(1→, →4)-Galp-(1→, →4)-Fucp-(1→, and T-Manp-(1→. Furthermore, the cytotoxicity and the repair ability of UVR-mediated cell damage of EPS-M1 were studied with L929 cells. The results showed that EPS-M1 had good biocompatibility and it could mitigate UVR-mediated cell damage by regulating the levels of cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), depolarization of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and Caspase-3/7 activity. Overall, the structure analysis and the protective effects of EPS against L929 cells exposed to UVR provided an experimental basis for EPS in practical applications.

Abstract
The Bacillus xiamenensis RT6 strain was isolated and identified by morphological, biochemical and molecular tests from an extreme acidic environment, Rio Tinto (Huelva). Optimisation tests for exopolysaccharide (EPS) production in different culture media determined that the best medium was a minimal medium with glucose as the only carbon source. The exopolymer (EPSt) produced by the strain was isolated and characterised using different techniques (GC-MS, HPLC/MSMS, ATR-FTIR, TGA, DSC). The molecular weight of EPSt was estimated. The results showed that the average molecular weight of EPSt was approximately 2.71 × 104 Da and was made up of a heteropolysaccharide composed of glucose (60%), mannose (20%) and galactose (20%). The EPSt showed antioxidant capabilities that significantly improved cell viability. Metal chelation determined that EPSt could reduce the concentration of transition metals such as iron at the highest concentrations tested. Finally, the emulsification study showed that EPSt was able to emulsify different natural polysaccharide oils, reaching up to an 80% efficiency (olive and sesame oil), and was a good candidate for the substitution of the most polluting emulsifiers. The EPSt was found to be suitable for pharmaceutical and industrial applications.

Abstract
Food sectors are facing issues as a result of food scarcity, which is exacerbated by rising populations and demand for food. Food is ordinarily wrapped and packaged using petroleum-based plastics such as polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, and others. However, the excessive use of these polymers has environmental and health risks. As a result, much research is currently focused on the use of bio-based materials for food packaging. Biodegradable polymers that are compatible with food products are used to make edible packaging materials. These can be ingested with food and provide consumers with additional health benefits. Recent research has shifted its focus to multilayer coatings and films-based food packaging, which can provide a material with additional distinct features. The aim of this review article is to investigate the properties and applications of several bio-based polymers in food packaging. The several types of edible film and coating production technologies are also covered separately. Furthermore, the use of edible films and coatings in the food industry has been examined, and their advantages over traditional materials are also discussed.

Abstract
Microneedles (MNs) have been developed for various applications such as drug delivery, cosmetics, diagnosis, and biosensing. To meet the requirements of MNs used in these areas, numerous materials have been used for the fabrication of MNs. However, MNs will be exposed to skin tissues after piercing the stratum corneum barrier. Thus, it is necessary to ensure that the matrix materials of MNs have the characteristics of low toxicity, good biocompatibility, biodegradability, and sufficient mechanical properties for clinical application. In this review, the matrix materials currently used for preparing MNs are summarized and reviewed in terms of these factors. In addition, MN products used on the market and their applications are summarized in the end. This work may provide some basic information to researchers in the selection of MN matrix materials and in developing new materials.

Abstract
Marine microbes produce polysaccharides with unique physicochemical and functional properties that help them survive in harsh marine environments. However, only a handful of marine exopolysaccharides (EPSs) have been reported to date. The present study explored the seashore of Visakhapatnam, India, to report a novel exopolysaccharide designated as Br42 produced by Brevibacillus borstelensis M42. The isolate was identified through morphological, biochemical, phylogenetic, and genome sequencing analysis. The studies on fermentation kinetics revealed that EPS Br42 was a primary metabolite with a maximum production of 1.88 ± 0.02 g/L after 60 h when production broth was fortified with 2% glucose. Additionally, EPS Br42 was found to be a heteropolysaccharide consisting of glucose and galacturonic acid with a molecular weight of about 286 kDa. Interestingly, this molecule possesses industrially relevant functional properties such as water-holding (510 ± 0.35%), oil-holding (374 ± 0.12% for coconut oil and 384 ± 0.35% for olive oil), and swelling capacities (146.6 ± 5.75%). EPS Br42 could form an emulsion that was stable at a wide pH range for about 72 h and, in fact, performed better as compared to Span 20, a commercially used synthetic emulsifier. Moreover, this EPS was also found to be heat stable and exhibited non-Newtonian pseudoplastic behavior. These physicochemical and functional properties of polysaccharides suggest that the EPS Br42 has potential for multifarious industrial applications as an emulsifier, stabilizer, viscosifier, and binding agent.

Abstract
The potential for the use of rice bran, an agricultural waste, as a substrate in the manufacture of gellan gum was examined. Using a standard strain of Sphingomonas paucimobilis (ATCC 31461) and rice bran substrate, gellan gum was produced under optimized conditions. The optimal yield of gellan gum using rice bran substrate was found to be 11.96 g L-1 with 5% glucose, 10% inoculum, and a mixing speed of 300 rpm. Native gum was found to have a consistency index of 2.00 Pa.sn. The viscosity of the gum was found to be extremely stable when exposed to thermal stress. Concerning the rheological characteristics, the Herschel-Bulkley model offered a more realistic representation of the flow characteristics of gum solutions. The synthesized gums were mostly composed of glucose, rhamnose, and glucuronic acid. The acetic acid content of gellan gums was 2.95%, while the molecular weight was 2.88 × 105 Da. Characterization of native gellan gums by UV-Vis spectroscopy, SEM, TEM and FTIR spectroscopy is also presented.

Abstract
The metabolites of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and bifidobacteria (Bb) have recently received a lot of attention due to their ability to protect interactions in blood and tissues, as well as their biodegradability and biocompatibility in human tissue. Exopolysaccharides (EPS) derived from bacteria have a long history of use in therapeutic and other industrial applications with no adverse effects. In this regard, EPSs were isolated and characterized from LAB and Bb culture supernatants to determine their antioxidant, antitumor, and periodontal regeneration properties. The antioxidant capacity of the EPSs varied with concentration (0.625-20 mg/ml). The highest antioxidant activity was found in LAB: Streptococcus thermophiles DSM 24731-EPS1, Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus DSM 20081T-EPS5, Limosilactobacillus fermentum DSM 20049-EPS6, and Bb; Bifidobacterium longum ssp. longum DSM 200707-EPS10. Human breast cancer cells (MCF7), human colon cancer cells (CaCo2), human liver cancer cells (HepG2), and human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK 293) cells were used as controls to assess the antitumor properties of the selected EPSs. According to the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium-bromide (MTT) assay, EPS5 had the highest cytotoxicity against MCF7, CaCo2, and HepG2, with IC50 values of 7.91, 10.69, and 9.12 mg/ml, respectively. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity was significantly higher in cell lines treated with EPS5-IC50 values compared to other EPSs-IC50 values (p < 0.05). Real time (RT)-PCR results showed that EPS5 treatment increased Bax, Caspase 8, Caspase 3, and p53 gene expression. The expression of the BCL2, MCL1, and Vimentin genes, on the other hand, was reduced. The MTT test was used to examine the effect of EPS5 on the viability of human periodontal ligament fibroblast cells (hPDLFCs), and it was discovered that EPS5 increased hPDLFC viability. According to high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis, galactose made up 12.5% of EPS5. The findings of this study pave the way for the use of EPS, which hold great promise for a variety of therapeutic purposes such as antioxidant, antitumor, and periodontal regeneration.

Abstract
The growing, existing demand for low-cost and high-quality hyaluronic acid (HA) needs an outlook of different possible production strategies from renewable resources with the reduced possibility of cross-infections. Recently, the possibility of producing HA from harmless microorganisms appeared, which offers the opportunity to make HA more economical, without raw material limitations, and environmentally friendly. HA production is mainly reported with Lancefield Streptococci A and C, particularly from S. equi and S. zooepidemicus. Various modes of fermentation such as batch, repeated batch, fed-batch, and continuous culture have been investigated to optimize HA production, particularly from S. zooepidemicus, obtaining a HA yield of 2.5 g L−1 – 7.0 g L−1. Among the different utilized DSP approaches of HA production, recovery with cold ethanol (4°C) and cetylpyridinium chloride is the ideal strategy for lab-scale HA production. On the industrial scale, besides using isopropanol, filtration (0.22 um), ultrafiltration (100 kDa), and activated carbon absorption are employed to obtain HA of low molecular weight and additional ultrafiltration to purify HA of higher MW. Even though mature technologies have already been developed for the industrial production of HA, the projections of increased sales volume and the expansion of application possibilities require new processes to obtain HA with higher productivity, purity, and specific molecular weights. In this review, we have put forth the progress of HA technological research by discussing the microbial biosynthetic aspects, fermentation and downstream strategies, industrial-scale scenarios of HA, and the prospects of HA production to meet the current and ongoing market demands.

Abstract
Bacterial exopolysaccharides are high molecular weight polysaccharides that are secreted by a wide range of bacteria, with diverse structures and easy preparation. Fucose, fucose-containing oligosaccharides (FCOs), and fucose-containing polysaccharides (FCPs) have important applications in the food and medicine fields, including applications in products for removing Helicobacter pylori and infant formula powder. Fucose-containing bacterial exopolysaccharide (FcEPS) is a prospective source of fucose, FCOs, and FCPs. This review systematically summarizes the common sources and applications of FCPs and FCOs and the bacterial strains capable of producing FcEPS reported in recent years. The repeated-unit structures, synthesis pathways, and factors affecting the production of FcEPS are reviewed, as well as the degradation methods of FcEPS for preparing FCOs. Finally, the bioactivities of FcEPS, including anti-oxidant, prebiotic, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, and anti-microbial activities, are discussed and may serve as a reference strategy for further applications of FcEPS in the functional food and medicine industries.

JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE 2022; 102:2023-2031. [PMID: 34558071 DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.11541] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2021] [Revised: 08/20/2021] [Accepted: 09/23/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease that results in the specific destruction of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism of exopolysaccharide from Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides XG5 (XG5 EPS) against type 1 diabetes. RESULTS Long-term drench of XG5 EPS delayed the onset of autoimmune diabetes and had fewer islets with high-grade infiltration (an insulitis score of 3 or 4) than untreated NOD mice. Oral administration of 50 mg kg-1 d-1 XG5 EPS increased the insulin and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) levels of serum, stimulated GLP-1 secretion and upregulated gcg mRNA expression of colon in NOD mice. Moreover, oral administration of 50 mg kg-1 d-1 XG5 EPS significantly increased total short-chain fatty acids levels in the colon contents, especially those of acetic acid and butyric acid. In NCI-H716 cells, 500 and 1000 μmol L-1 sodium butyrate promoted the secretion of GLP-1 and upregulated the mRNA expression of gcg and PC3, while XG5 EPS and sodium acetate did not stimulate the GLP-1 secretion. Therefore, long-term drench of XG5 EPS delayed the onset of autoimmune diabetes, which may be directly correlated with the increase of butyrate in the colon of NOD mice. CONCLUSION Long-term drench of 50 mg kg-1 d-1 XG5 EPS promoted the expression and secretion of GLP-1 by increasing the production of butyric acid, thereby delaying T1D onset in NOD mice. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

Up-recycling oil produced water as the media-base for the production of xanthan gum. Biopolymers 2022; 113:e23488.

Abstract
Produced water (PW) and crude glycerin (CG) are compounds overproduced by the oil and biodiesel industry and significant scientific efforts are being applied for properly recycling them. The aim of this research is to combine such industrial byproducts for sustaining the production of xanthan by Xanthomonas campestris. Xanthan yields and viscosity on distinct PW ratios (0, 10, 15, 25, 50, 100) and on 100% dialyzed PW (DPW) in shaker batch testing identified DPW treatment as the best approach for further bioreactor experiments. Such experiments showed a xanthan yield of 17.3 g/L within 54 h and a viscosity of 512 mPa s. Physical-chemical characterization (energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy) showed similarities between the produced gum and the experimental control. This research shows a clear alternative for upcycling high salinity PW and CG for the generation of a valued bioproduct for the oil industry.
