摘要：

A range of biochemical characterizations were used to examine the extracellular polymeric secretions (EPS) of two cyanobacteria, Synechocystis sp. and Oscillatoria sp., isolated from marine stromatolites, Bahamas. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis was successfully used to fractionate proteins in EPS. The results suggest that cyanobacterial EPS is composed of a network of macromolecules having different biochemical properties, which may contribute to extracellular functions.
