dc.description.abstractLeuconostoc mesenteroides S81 was isolated from traditional sourdough as an exopolysaccharide (EPS) producer strain. The monosaccharide composition of the EPS from strain S81 was characterized by HPLC analysis and only fructose was found in the repeating unit structure. The NMR spectroscopy analysis revealed that EPS was a levan type EPS as a beta-(2 -> 6)-linked fructan. The MR analysis further confirmed the presence of the furanoid rings in the EPS structure. The levan S81 showed high level of thermal stability determined by DSC and TGA analysis. The lyophilised levan S81 showed a sheet-like compact morphology and its aqueous solution formed spheroidal lumps with a compact structure detected by SEM and AFM analysis, respectively. Importantly the levan S81 showed a high level of immunomodulatory role, induced the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-4, and exhibited a strong antioxidant capacity with EC50 value 1.7 mg mL(-1) obtained by hydroxyl radical scavenging activity test under in vitro conditions. These findings reveal potential of levan S81 for technological purposes and as a potential natural immunomodulatory and antioxidant. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.en_US
