Abstract
Wang, Marian (University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia), Edward Steers, and Robert F. Norris. Extracellular polysaccharide of mucoid Lactobacillus bifidus. J. Bacteriol. 86:898-903. 1963.-The extracellular polysaccharide produced by the "Jackson-mucoid" strain of Lactobacillus bifidus was isolated and purified by three different procedures. The component sugars of the polysaccharide were identified by paper chromatography and confirmed by infrared analysis. Galacturonic acid, galactose, glucose, and 6-deoxy-talose were identified. Contrary to a previous report from this laboratory, fucose was not found to be a component of this polysaccharide.Entities:
