Influence of nutritional factors on xanthan production by Xanthomonas malvacearum
نویسندگان
چکیده
Xanthan gum is an extra cellular microbial hetero polysaccharide of great commercial importance, secreted by the yellow pigmented bacterium Xanthomonas malvacearum. Polysaccharides are macromolecules with diverse applications in the food, chemical, energy production and pharmaceutical Industries. The nutrient factors influencing the production of Xanthan polymer by Xanthomonas malvacearum isolated from infected cotton leaves were investigated. Xanthomonas malvacearum showed the highest yield of polymer 0.621 kg of sucrose at 48 hours. Xanthan production and biomass with varying carbon source, nitrogen source, different pH and different temperature were investigated. Physical characterization of Xanthan is solubility. Chemical characterization of Xanthan is Osazone test were investigated crystal shaped structure are viewed on viewing under microscope .To degrading the Xanthan gum using bacterial strains.

Xanthomonas campestris was used for producing xanthan gum using date syrup, prepared from low quality dates, as a substrate. Fermentation was carried out with date syrup and sucrose syrup at 28 ˚C and pH 6.8 in a rotary benmarin shaker (240 rpm). The effect of fermentation period (24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 h) on xanthan gum production was studied. The results showed that EPS concentration increase...

Xanthan gum is a microbial polysaccharide of great commercial importance as it has unusual rheological properties in solution and consequent range of applications. In this study, a series of mutants were isolated from Xanthomonas campestris PTCC 1473 by ethyl methanesulfonate mutagenesis. The polysaccharide yield of one mutant, XC1473E2, was 30% better than that of the parent strain. It also sh...
