DOI: 10.1016/j.molimm.2018.12.011
Abstract: Sepharose matrix without immobilized ligands binds antibodies from human blood serum or immunoglobulin preparations. The eluted antibodies bind bacterial polysaccharides having no structural similarity to agarose (Sepharose is a cross-linked polysaccharide agarose) with a high… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41589-022-01006-6
Abstract: Bacterial surface polysaccharides are assembled by glycosyltransferase enzymes that typically use sugar nucleotide or polyprenyl-monophosphosugar activated donors. Characterized representatives exist for many monosaccharides but neither the donor nor the corresponding glycosyltransferases have been definitively identified… read more here.

Abstract: Bacteria and their enzymatic machinery, also called bacterial cell factories, produce a diverse variety of biopolymers such as polynucleotides, polypeptides and polysaccharides, with different and fundamental cellular functions. Polysaccharides are the most widely used biopolymers,… read more here.

Bacterial polysaccharides—A big source for prebiotics and therapeutics
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Nutrition"
DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2022.1031935
Abstract: Bacterial polysaccharides are unique due to their higher purity, hydrophilic nature, and a finer three-dimensional fibrous structure. Primarily, these polymers provide protection, support, and energy to the microorganism, however, more recently several auxiliary properties of… read more here.
