food, health, biological activity, exopolysaccharidesAbstract
Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are microorganisms of great importance for the food industry and health. Initially, these microorganisms were used mainly to preserve food; however, over the years, their potential biological activity, and the production of compounds with bioactive potential have been studied, such as exopolysaccharides (EPS). EPS are polysaccharides outside the microbial cell wall with a heterogeneous composition based mainly on carbohydrates and a protein matrix. They are sintered by various microorganisms, such as microalgae, bacteria, fungi, and yeast, as a response to environmental stress. In foods, EPS are used as viscosity agents, stabilizers, emulsifiers, and gelling agents. On the other hand, some EPS have shown immunomodulatory, cholesterol-reducing, anti-cancer, and anticoagulant properties and interfere with the growth of pathogens, which is why they are of great interest to the health area.
