Popis: | Exopolysaccharide (EPS) produced by Streptococcus thermophilus GST-6 in skim milk was extracted and purified. The EPS was composed of glucose and galactose in a molar ratio of 1.80:1.03 with identical primary structure to the EPS from S. thermophilus ST1 reported previously. The purified EPS was sulphated at a sulphonation degree of 0.26±0.03, and presence of sulphate groups in the sulphated EPS (SEPS) was confirmed. Microstructural studies demonstrated a porous web with coarse surface for the EPS while the SEPS appeared as stacked flakes with relatively uniform shapes. Sulphonation of the EPS slightly decreased its degrading temperature from 234.6°C to 232.5°C. The DPPH, superoxide and hydroxyl radicals scavenging activities of the EPS were significantly (P |
