Studies on a Neutral Exopolysaccharide of Lactobacillus fermentum TDS030603

Open access

Abstract

A neutral exopolysaccharide produced in large amounts by Lactobacillus fermentum TDS030603 was purified from culture supernatants and its structure determined by monosaccharide analysis, methylation analysis and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Optimum conditions for the production of this exopolysaccharide by the above bacterial strain, when cultured using cheese whey medium or MRS broth, were also investigated. The exopolysaccharide was found to be composed of D-galactose and D-glucose in the molar ratio of 1:2.5 and to consist of one major as well as one minor saccharide, both of which contained a tetrasaccharide repeating unit consisting of two α and two β anomers. The major saccharide contained non-reducing glucopyranose, O-3 substituted glucopyranose, O-6 substituted galactopyranose and O-2,3 disubstituted glucopyranose. The minor saccharide consisted of non-reducing galactopyranose, O-3 substituted glucopyranose, O-6 substituted galactopyranose and O-2,3 disubstituted glucopyranose. The results suggest that these exopolysaccharides are novel saccharides that differ from previously reported products of Lactobacillus fermentum strains. Their presence may contribute to the ropy properties of the medium.

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.
