Stripping interfering sugars from samples using adapted bacteria.

Abstract excerpt

Bacteria adapted to individual sugars quickly remove targeted sugars--stripping them--from samples in which unwanted sugars interfere. Adapted bacteria are equivalent to specific reagents for removal of sugars down to bacterial Km values, micromolar to submicromolar concentrations. Bacterial stripping is a simple method, useful when background sugars in micro-to millimolar concentrations (or larger) interfere...
