Redox properties of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) from electroactive bacteria
Although the capacity for electroactive bacteria to convert environmental metallic minerals and organic pollutants is well known, the role of the redox properties of microbial extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) in this process is poorly understood. In this work, the redox properties of EPS from two widely present electroactive bacterial strains (Shewanella oneidensis and Pseudomonas putid...
متن کاملInfluence of natural organic matter on the deposition kinetics of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) on silica.
The influence of humic acid and alginate, two major components of natural organic matter (NOM), on deposition kinetics of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) on silica was examined in both NaCl and CaCl(2) solutions over a wide range of environmentally relevant ionic strengths utilizing a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation. Deposition kinetics of both soluble EPS and bound EPS ex...
متن کاملBiosynthesis of Extracellular Polymeric Substances (EPS) and Its Role in Microbial Biofilm Formation
Microbial biofilm formed on abiotic surfaces is an important area of research because of the wide range of possible affects and the disinfectant resistance of the cells. The colonization of solid surfaces by microorganisms is a very complicated process that depends mostly on extracellular molecule production. The biosynthesis of EPS reflected not only the attachment and aggregation process but ...
متن کاملComposition of Extracellular Polymeric Substances (EPS) produced by Flavobacterium columnare isolated from tropical fish in Brazil
Thirty nine isolates of Flavobacterium columnare from Brazilian fish farms had their carbohydrate composition of EPS evaluated by high efficiency liquid chromatography, using the phenol-sulfuric acid method of EPS. The occurrence of capsules on F. columnare cells was not directly related to biofilm formation, and the predominant monosaccharide is glucose.
متن کاملComposition and aggregation of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) in hyperhaline and municipal wastewater treatment plants
As important constituents of activated sludge flocs, extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) play significant roles in pollutants adsorption, the formation and maintenance of microbial aggregates, and the protection of microbes from external environmental stresses. In this work, EPS in activated sludge from a municipal wastewater treatment plant (M-WWTP) with anaerobic/anoxic/oxic (A(2)/O) pro...
