Abstract
The structure of the major constituent of the biofilm matrix produced by Pseudomonas sp. OX1, when grown on phenol as the sole carbon source is described. This investigation, carried out by chemical analysis, NMR spectroscopy and MALDI-TOF MS spectrometry, showed the presence of an oligosaccharide blend with the typical alginate structure, namely (1-->4) substituted beta-D-mannuronic (ManA) and alpha-L-guluronic acid (GulA). GulA residues were non-acetylated whereas ManA was always O-acetylated at C-2 or C-3.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
