The role of bacterial extracellular polymers in cell surface chemistry, metal adsorption and biomineralisation

This study aimed to characterise the role of bacterial extracellular polymers in surface reactivity, metal adsorption and biomineralisation. This was undertaken using an EPS-producing, thermophilic, bacterial strain, Bacillus licheniformis S-86. Experimental work was undertaken comparing cells with...
