A Glacier Bacterium Produces High Yield of Cryoprotective Exopolysaccharide

Pseudomonas sp. BGI-2 is a psychrotrophic bacterium isolated from the ice sample collected from Batura glacier, Pakistan. This strain produces highly viscous colonies on agar media supplemented with glucose. In this study, we have optimized growth and production of exopolysaccharide (EPS) by the col...
