Properties of exopolymeric substances (EPSs) produced during cyanobacterial growth: potential role in whiting events

<p>Extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs) are an important organic carbon reservoir in many pelagic and benthic environments. The production of EPS is intimately associated with the growth of phyto- and picoplankton. EPS plays a critical role in carbonate precipitation through the binding o...
