“…Compared to the blank fermentation, fermentation of all NDCs resulted in a high relative abundance of Bifidobacterium and the production of acetate and lactate. Bacterial products from Bifidobacteria, such as exopolysaccharides 43 , bacterial RNA/DNA and lipoproteins 44 can interact with DCs via specialized immune receptors including Toll like receptors (TLRs) and C-type lectin receptors expressed on the cell surface. 44,45 SCFAs have been shown to influence DC cytokine production via interaction with GPCRs receptors including GPR43, GPR41 and GPR109A 32 .…”

“…An effective method should be developed for obtaining EPSs, especially for their synthesis, which could result in a greater EPS supply. Modification of EPS structures or chemical synthesis of EPSs could also be of great importance for developing specific side chains or changing single monosaccharides, as well as illuminating or boosting specific functions of EPSs [35].…”

Bacterial exopolysaccharides (EPSs) are an essential group of compounds secreted by bacteria. These versatile EPSs are utilized individually or in combination with different materials for a broad range of biomedical field functions. The various applications can be explained by the vast number of derivatives with useful properties that can be controlled. This review offers insight on the current research trend of nine commonly used EPSs, their biosynthesis pathways, their characteristics, and the biomedical applications of these relevant bioproducts.

“…Structures and composition of HePs are complex and composed of two or more monosaccharide units with varied linkage positions, branching patterns, repeat units, and monosaccharide modifications. Major monosaccharides in the HePs backbone are D‐glucose, D‐galactose, and D‐rhamnose with modifications involving D‐mannose, D‐glucuronic acid, and N‐acetylated monosaccharides (Oerlemans et al ., 2021). HepPs extracellular secretion happens involving various enzymes, proteins, and carriers.…”

The objective of this review was to evaluate the structural and functional role of Microbial exopolysaccharides (EPS) in food products. EPS are biologically produced natural macromolecules that provides distinctive rheological and physicochemical properties to food matrix. Understanding the interactions of EPS with food components at the molecular level enables the application in bakery products, dairy/non-dairybased functional products, processed meat, as probiotics delivery vehicles, etc. Further information at the biological level throws light on the potential use for immunomodulation, microbiota modulation, and gut-health management. At present, though the commercial applications of these polysaccharides are limited due to lower yield, the bio-thickening properties at lower concentrations increases its scope for structural and functional food production through ex-vivo/in-vivo applications. The information relating to the successful application of EPS for functional foods is scattered and the exploited structural-functional relationships are crucial for laying further investigations to develop futuristic products. This article discusses the application of EPS in functional food products and the prospective benefits.
