Abstract excerpt

Acetobacter tropicalis SKU1100 produces a pellicle polysaccharide, consisting of galactose, glucose and rhamnose, which attaches to the cell surface. This strain forms two types of colony on agar plates: a rough-surfaced colony (R strain) and a mucoid smooth-surfaced colony (S strain). The R strain forms a pellicle, allowing it to float on the medium surface in static culture, while the S strain does not. The...
