Bacterial polysaccharides present a real potential in cell therapy and tissue engineering with the advantage, over the polysaccharides from eukaryotes, that they can be totally produced under controlled conditions in bioreactors. Polysaccharides synthesized by microorganisms suggest unique properties and advantages in their exploration and are an attractive alternative of plant, algal and synthetic polysaccharides. They represent a fast renewable resource that could partially compensate the restricted mass of plant polysaccharides. Their production is a matter of days, while plants life cycles last for months or years, being that the production cycle is usually [Pg.2]
