“…Carbon sources are important factors determining the amount and the physicochemical characteristics of bacterial EPS [44]. Starch was ranked as the best substrate for extracellular polysaccharide production from Rhodotorula minuta ATCC 10,658 [65], as well as for Streptomyces sp.…”

“…Most of the microorganisms applied in situ oil recovery are oil-degrading microorganisms and can release extracellular emulsifiers to facilitate microbial oil uptake and degradation [108]. Since crude oil contains various metals, it is important for the microorganisms to be tolerant of these metals [44]. In this regard, it was of interest that MOE6-EPS could bind metal cations and some anions to protect cells and ensured the function of the bacteria in the oil-polluted environment.…”

“…Strain EG9S8QL was selected for further phenotypic and genotypic characterizations. The growth factors (pH, NaCl content, temperature, carbon sources, cultivation duration) were studied to obtain the maximum bacterial growth as described [ 38 ]. The culture was stored at −80 °C in an S-G medium with final concentration 20% of glycerol.…”

“…Halophilic microorganism Halobacillus sp. EG1HP4QL develops the ability to utilize crude oil as the sole carbon source within 12 days and to degrade paraffin (34.5%), naphthalene (49.6%), mono- and bicyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (51.2%), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (43.5%), and alcohol–benzene resins (25.5%) [ 106 ]. EPS-producing Halomonas strain TG39 was also used for bioremediation of a hydrocarbon-contaminated Deepwater Horizon spill site [ 107 ]; the extracted EPS was effective not only in increasing the solubilization of aromatic hydrocarbons but also in enhancing the degradation rate of phenanthrene.…”
