Abstract:Six lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from Algerian sheep’s milk, traditional butter, date palm sap and barley, which produce dextran, mannitol, oligosaccharides and vitamin B2 have been characterized. They were identified as Leuconostoc mesenteroides (A4X, Z36P, B12 and O9) and Liquorilactobacillus mali (BR201 and FR123). Their exopolysaccharides synthesized from sucrose by dextransucrase (Dsr) were characterized as dextrans with (1,6)-d-glucopyranose units in the main backbone and branched at positions O-4… Show more
