Abstract
Pseudomonas fluorescens, strain OSU 64, was shown to produce only a mannan regardless of the type of carbon source employed as the nutriment. Stationary cultures were more favorable for polysaccharide formation than shaken cultures. Growth curve data indicated that polysaccharide production took place after the phase of logarithmic growth. Methylpentose was demonstrated to be present in the cells of this organism.
