Microbial polysaccharides as renewable bioproducts have attracted lots of attention in various industries. Hesan (Highly elastic Sanxan), an exopolysaccharide produced by a plasma mutagenic strain Sphingomonas sanxanigenens NX03, was characterized. It possessed the same monosaccharide composition as the original polysaccharide Sanxan produced from wild-type strain NX02, but significantly reduced acetyl and glyceryl contents. Textural analysis showed the springiness and cohesiveness of Hesan gel was much higher than Sanxan gel, and rheological behaviors indicated it possessed a lower loss factor, and its conformational transition temperatures at different concentrations were obviously lower than Sanxan gel and high-acyl gellan gel, which suggested that Hesan gel was highly elastic and temperature-sensitive. Additionally, Hesan gel could be efficiently produced through micro-aerobic static culture in shallow (10.46 ± 0.30 g/L) and deep liquids (3.21 ± 0.32 g/L), which was significantly different from the fermentation of other water-soluble polysaccharides. In short, this study characterizes a new mutant strain and its polysaccharide products.
