Effect of Gamma Irradiation on Enhanced Biological Activities of Exopolysaccharide from <i>Halomonas desertis</i> G11: Biochemical and Genomic Insights

In this work, a native exopolysaccharide (nEPS) produced by <i>Halomonas desertis</i> G11 isolated from a Tunisian extreme environment was modified by gamma irradiation. Characterization as well as the antioxidant and antitumor activities of nEPS and its gamma-irradiated derivatives (iEP...
