CPS is permanently attached to the outer surface of the cells and EPS is secreted into the growth medium (Ali et al. 2011, Perumpuli et al. 2014). These polysaccharides are either homopolysaccharides containing a single type of monosaccharide or heteropolysaccharides containing several types of monosaccharides (Donot et al. 2012, Ahmad et al. 2015). © 2017 by Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.EnglishGlucoseMetabolitesPolysaccharidesAcetic acid bacteriaCapsular polysaccharidesExopolysaccharidesGram positiveGram-negative bacteriaGrowth mediumHeteropolysaccharidesOuter surfaceBacteriaBook chapter10.1201/9781315153490
