Medical application of exopolymers produced by marine bacteria

Abstract

Abstract Background Natural products have been viewed as essential sources that could create potential chemotherapeutic agents. In the look for new bioactive substances, examinations were extended to marine territories. Results Humanity has known for the last few thousand years that a marine organism contains substances fit for strong biological activity. However, the main genuine examination of marine living beings began just 50 years prior. Since then, all types of life in the marine condition (e.g., bacteria, algae, and fungi) have been researched for their bioactive content. Conclusions Exopolymers can be applied in a wide range of industrial applications in biomedicines.
