Fig. 1. The assessment of EPS production and viscosity for each strain. (A) EPS-producing microorganisms, 2^nd selection. The strains were cultured for 3 days at 15°C in MBG medium. EPS production was estimated via its dry weight. The values shown are the means ± SDs from three experimental repeats [35; Fig. S1]. (B) Comparisons of the shear stress and shear rate on 0.3% (w/v) EPS. Note: RosPo-7, -11, -13, and -16 showed minimal changes in shear stress and shear rate; therefore, they are not presented on this graph.
