Intercalation of the Microbial Biopolymers Welan Gum and EPS I Into Layered Double Hydroxides
Intercalation of the Microbial Biopolymers Welan Gum and EPS I into Layered Double Hydroxides Johann Plank, Serina Ng and Sebastian Foraita Chair for Construction Chemicals, Technische Universitat¨ Munchen,¨ 85747 Garching, Lichtenbergstraße 4, Germany Reprint requests to Prof. Dr. Johann Plank. Fax : +49 (0)89 289 13152. E-mail: [email protected] (J. Plank) Z. Naturforsch. 2012, 67b, 479 – 487 / DOI: 10.5560/ZNB.2012-0081 Received March 19, 2012 Three microbial polysaccharides, namely welan gum, scleroglucan, and EPS I, a novel polysac- charide obtained from a newly isolated bacillus species with structural similarities to xanthan gum, were employed in the fabrication of bio-nanocomposites based on layered double hydroxides (LDH). Synthesis was performed by direct co-precipitation of Zn(NO3)2 and Al(NO3)3 in the polysaccha- ride solutions at pH ∼ 8:5. The reaction products were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), elemental and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM). It was found that welan gum is successfully intercalated into the Zn–Al–LDH structure, giving a d-spacing of 2:38 nm for the in- terlayer distance, while neutral scleroglucan failed to be intercalated. Instead, this biopolymer was only surface-adsorbed on inorganic CaAl–OH–LDH platelets, as was evidenced by de-washing ex- periments. These results indicate that the anionic functionality of the polysaccharides presents a main driving force behind their intercalation. In contrast to regular xanthan gum, EPS I was intercalated into the LDH structure to give a sharp X-ray reflection representing a d-spacing of 2:77 nm. -

Anti-Cancer Effect of Polysaccharides Isolated from Higher Basidiomycetes Mushrooms
African Journal of Biotechnology Vol. 2 (12), pp. 672-678, December 2003 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/AJB ISSN 1684–5315 © 2003 Academic Journals Takashi Mizuno (1931-2000) Professor Emeritus of Shizuoka University This article is written in memory of Professor Takashi Mizuno who died in May 2000. He had focused a lifetime of research upon development of various antitumor substances from medicinal mushrooms, and is considered th one of the 20 century greatest scientist in his field. Mizuno proved that many polysaccharides with antitumor and immunopotentiating qualities were synthesised in cultured mycelia no less and in fact often better than in fruiting bodies. This result virtually revolutionised mushroom producing and processing business. “Medicine and food both originate from the same root” is a Japanese proverb Mizuno often quoted.

Dabaλ and O.U.Ezeronye* Division of Medical Biochemistry, Molecular Biology Laboratory, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Cape Town, Observatory Cape Town, South Africa. Accepted 24 November 2003 Anti-tumor activity of mushroom fruit bodies and mycelial extracts evaluated using different cancer cell lines. These polysaccharide extracts showed potent antitumor activity against sarcoma 180, mammary adenocarcinoma 755, leukemia L-1210 and a host of other tumors. The antitumor activity was mainly due to indirect host mediated immunotherapeutic effect. These studies are still in progress in many laboratories and the role of the polysaccharides as immunopotentiators is especially under intense debate. The purpose of the present review is to summarize the available information in this area and to indicate the present status of the research. -
Towards a Better Production of Bacterial Exopolysaccharides 2018
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology (2018) 102:1587–1598 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00253-018-8745-7 MINI-REVIEW Towards a better production of bacterial exopolysaccharides by controlling genetic as well as physico-chemical parameters Dipanjan Sengupta1 & Sriparna Datta1 & Dipa Biswas1 Received: 9 September 2017 /Revised: 22 December 2017 /Accepted: 27 December 2017/Published online: 17 January 2018 # Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract Bacterial extracellular polymeric substances, which are basically bacterial metabolites, have currently become a subject of great concern of modern day microbiologists and biotechnologists. Among these metabolites, bacterial exopolysaccharides or EPS, in particular, have gained a significant importance. EPS are formed by the bacteria in their late exponential or stationary phase of growth under special situations for specific purposes. They take part in the formation of bacterial biofilms. There is a great diversity in the types of EPS. Strikingly enough, a same species of bacterium can produce different types of EPS under different situations. The importance of EPS is largely because of their different applications in various industries. Now that the bacterial EPS has got the potentiality to become an upcoming tool in various futuristic applications of human benefit, the focus currently develops towards how better they can be produced in the laboratory by promoting the favorable factors for their production. While studying with different EPS forming bacteria, both the intrinsic factors like genetic configuration of the bacteria and the extrinsic factors like culture conditions under the influence of different physico-chemical parameters in order to maximize the EPS production have been taken into consideration. -

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract The structure-function relationship of a gellan family of polysaccharides, S-198 gum produced by Alcaligenes ATCC31853 was investigated in terms of rheological aspects. The flow curves of S-198 gum showed plastic behavior above 0.3%. Gelation did not occur in S-198 gum solution at low temperature (0˚C), even at 0.8%. Both the viscosity and the elastic modulus remained constant with increasing temperature up to 80˚C. The elastic modulus decreased a little with the addition of CaCl2 (6.8 mM), but then once again remained constant up to 80˚C. The highest elastic mod- ulus was observed for deacylated gellan gum with the addition of CaCl2 and increased slightly with increasing temperature up to 80˚C, which was considered to be a transition temperature, after which it decreased rapidly. -
The Future of Bacterial Cellulose and Other Microbial Polysaccharides
The Future of Bacterial Cellulose and Other Microbial Polysaccharides Eliane Trovatti* Institute of Chemistry, São Paulo State University, UNESP, CP 355, 14801-970 Araraquara-SP, Brazil Received October 15, 2012; Accepted October 23, 2012 ABSTRACT: Biobased polymers have been gaining the attention of society and industry because of concerns about the depletion of fossil fuels and growing environmental problems. Cellulose fi bers are one of the most promising biopolymers to be explored as a component of composite materials with emergent properties for new applications. Bacterial Cellulose (BC), a special kind of cellulose produced by microorganisms, is endowed with unique properties. In this context, this perspective offers an overview about the properties of BC that would enable it to become a commodity. This includes an appraisal of the current BC market, as compared with other available biopolymers. The steps of the biosynthesis and purifi cation of BC are also outlined, together with the diffi culties that may be responsible for its future development, including the needs for making its production process(es) more attractive to industry. Other microbial polysaccharides are also discussed.
