Cellulose-mediated floc formation by the activated sludge bacterium Shinella zoogloeoides ATCC 19623
Abstract Background Bacterial floc formation plays a central role in the activated sludge (AS) process. The formation of AS flocs has long been known to require exopolysaccharide biosynthesis. We had demonstrated that both expolysaccharides and PEP-CTERM (a short C-terminal domain includes a near-in...
