Scientists optimize production of health-boosting exopolysaccharides from kefir bacteria
Researchers have isolated and optimized lactic acid bacteria from kefir capable of producing valuable exopolysaccharides (EPS). The optimized cultivation process more than doubled EPS yield, paving the way for sustainable production of natural biopolymers with applications in food, cosmetics, and medicine.
