Abstract

Bacteria that produce exopolysaccharides (EPS) and use methane as the only source of carbon were selected by studying a collection of methanotroph strains: Methylococcus capsulatusE 494, 874, and 3009; M. thermophilus111p, 112p, and 119p; Methylobacter ucrainicus159 and 161; M. luteus57v and 12b; Methylobactersp. 100; Methylomonas rubra15 sh and SK-32; Methylosinus trichosporiumOV3b, OV5b, and 4e; M. sporium5,12, A20d, and 90v; and Methylocystis parvusOVVP. Mesophilic methanotroph strains with the ribulose monophosphate way of C1-compound assimilation synthesized EPS more actively than bacteria operating the serine cycle. The dynamics of EPS synthesis by methanotrophs during chemostat cultivation was studied.
