Abstract
Bacteriocin is peptide produced by bacteria to inhibit or kill other bacteria, exopolysaccharides are long chain polysaccharides composed of repeating sugar units. In the past decade, interest in bacteriocin and polysaccharides research from lactic acid bacteria have obtained great momentum due to their potential functions. This chapter will summarize current literature on the biological characteristics and functions of protein and exopolysaccharide produced by lactic acid bacteria, and discuss their potential applications.
