Cryopreservation of Cyanobacteria and Eukaryotic Microalgae Using Exopolysaccharide Extracted from a Glacier Bacterium

Exopolysaccharide (EPS) has been known to be a good cryoprotective agent for bacteria, but it has not been tested for cyanobacteria and eukaryotic microalgae. In this study, we used EPS extracted from a glacier bacterium as a cryoprotective agent for the cryopreservation of three unicellular cyanoba...
