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 stri...
