To date, among LAB, the yield of heteropolysaccharides is quite variable (Tsuda 2013); one of the largest EPS producers is L. rhamnosus RW-9595M (2775 mg/L) (Macedo et al. 2002) and Lactobacillus kefiranofaciens WT-2B (2500 mg/L) (Maeda et al. 2004a) followed by L. lactis subsp. cremoris (80–600 mg/L), S. thermophilus (50–350 mg/L), Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus (60–150 mg/L), Lactobacillus casei (50–60 mg/L) (Cerning 1995), and L. plantarum (140 mg/L) (Tsuda and Miyamoto 2010).
