Abstract
⺠We study EPS from wild type and exoY strains of bacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti. ⺠EPS extracted by centrifugation, EDTA and formaldehyde/NaOH were compared. ⺠Two major components of proteinaceous and polysaccharide nature were found. ⺠Extraction methods influenced TOC, TN and total protein content in EPS. ⺠Molar mass distributions also differed among treatments and bacterial strains.
