Abstract excerpt
The optimal temperature for the microbial polysaccharide fermentation is no higher than 30 °C, which is economically undesirable due to additional cooling cost. To solve this problem in the case of welan gum production, we obtained the high-temperature-tolerant-producing strain, Sphingomonas sp. HT-1 by atmospheric and room-temperature plasma-induced mutation. Using HT-1, we obtained a concentration and 1 %...
