Optimization of bifidobacterium pseudocatenulatum KAKii cultivation conditions for exopolysaccharide production using response surface methodology / Aliza Mahdi

Bifidobacteria is gram-positive, non-motile, non-spore-forming and strictly anaerobic bacteria. It is belongs to phylum Actinobacteria and able to produce exopolysaccharide (EPS). EPS extracted from the Bifidobacteria are polymers of sugars, long chained polysaccharide that have been shown to give b...
