A Review on Commercial Applications of Exopolysaccharide Derived from Pseudomonas Species

Jayshree S. Lokhande, Simran Dutta

Abstract: The exopolysaccharides are bioactive polymers synthesized by Pseudomonas Species with diverse application across the environment, biomedical and industrial domains. The review includes recent knowledge, functional properties and commercial applications of exopolysaccharide derived from Pseudomonas species. Pseudomonas EPS shows antioxidant, antimicrobial, antiviral, antibiofilm, cryoprotective, emulsifying, and rheological properties. The properties are based on their structure, monosaccharide composition and high molecular weight. These properties are responsible for their application such as thickeners, emulsifiers, texturing agents, flavouring agents and fragrance ingredients in the cosmetic and food industry. EPS also has its contribution in Bioremediation and Agricultural development as its properties include biosorption of heavy metals and enhancement of soil-water retention capacity. Thus, Pseudomonas derived EPS constitutes bioactive polymers with promising eco-friendly commercial application.
