Abstract
  • Lentisphaera araneosa is a marine microorganism, and its production of expolymer plays an important role in marine ecosystem. The exopolymer production in L. araneosa is studied by measuring the growth of bacteria (in cells/mL) and the viscosity of the medium (in centistokes) under different treatments. The treatment without serine and the treatment without glucose both allow higher cell growth and higher TEP production than the control group. These two treatments may lead to a new nutrient recipe for the cultivation of L. araneosa.
