Effects of rising temperature on the formation and microbial degradation of marine diatom aggregates (2009, background): “Bacterial degradation activity increases the proportion of deoxy sugars in extracellular polysaccharides (EPS), enhancing the hydrophobic feature of EPS and the formation of TEP (Giroldo et al. 2003).”
Dynamics of extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) production and loss in an estuarine, diatom‐dominated, microalgal biofilm over a tidal emersio—immersion period (2006, methodology): “Giroldo et al. (2003) reported relative increases in the proportion of deoxy sugars during the degradation of planktonic diatom EPS exudates, as glucose was preferentially used.”
Biofilm polymers: relationship between carbohydrate biopolymers from estuarine mudflats and unialgal cultures of benthic diatoms (2005, background): “Giroldo et al. (2003) found that bacteria preferentially degraded the glucose portions of polymers over the fucose and rhamnose regions produced by planktonic diatoms.”
Significance of diatom-derived polymers in carbon flow dynamics within estuarine biofilms determined through isotopic enrichment (2009, background): “Increased floc formation and sedimentation of algal cells has been attributed to increased deoxysugar content (Giroldo et al. 2003), and the sedimentation of polysaccharides can increase sediment carbohydrate content upwards of 30% (Hanlon et al. 2006).”
Everglades Periphyton: A Biogeochemical Perspective (2011, background): “The saccharides xylose, rhamnose, and fucose are refractory (Giroldo et al., 2003) and known to accumulate in temperate peats (Macko et al.”
Optimising extraction of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) from benthic diatoms: comparison of the efficiency of six EPS extraction methods (2009, background): “High proportions of deoxy sugars increases the hydrophobic feature of EPS and this process must influence the degree to which EPS bind to sediments and regulate desiccation (Zhou et al. 1998; Giroldo et al. 2003; Underwood et al. 2004).”
EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX ASSEMBLY IN DIATOMS (BACILLARIOPHYCEAE). V. ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS ON POLYSACCHARIDE SYNTHESIS IN THE MODEL DIATOM, PHAEODACTYLUM TRICORNUTUM 1 (2006, background): “Giroldo et al. (2003) reported increased Rha and Fuc components of Thalassiosira sp. polymers following bacterial degradation, and proposed that the increased hydrophobic nature of the polymers leads to formation of transparent exopolymeric particles and aggregation.”
