Antibiofilm polysaccharides
Open accessAbstract
Bacterial extracellular polysaccharides have been shown to mediate many of the cell-to-cell and cell-to-surface interactions that are required for the formation, cohesion and stabilization of bacterial biofilms. However, recent studies have identified several bacterial polysaccharides that inhibit biofilm formation by a wide spectrum of bacteria and fungi both in vitro and in vivo. This review discusses the composition, modes of action and potential biological roles of antibiofilm polysaccharides recently identified in bacteria and eukarya. Some of these molecules may have technological applications as antibiofilm agents in industry and medicine.

Antibiofilm activity is observed when a large EPS fraction is used.
“Considering the data in the literature, it was found that antibiofilm activity is observed when a large EPS fraction is used [44].”
From Analysis of Chemical Structure and Antibiofilm Properties of Exopolysaccharides from Lactiplantibacillus plantarum EIR/IF-1 Postbiotics (2022) · cites this paper as [44]
The Introduction section on polysaccharides isolated from biofilms (page unavailable) reports that a purified high-molecular-weight exopolysaccharide exhibited antibiofilm activity. It does not establish that activity occurs when a large EPS fraction is used, whether “large” refers to the amount used or to molecular size. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe EPS fraction with a weight of 841 kDa could be the fraction responsible for the antibiofilm activity.
“In this study, it was found that the EPS fraction with a weight of 841 kDa could be the fraction responsible for the antibiofilm activity.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
