Abstract
The invention relates to biotechnology. It relates, in particular, to cultures of Klebsiella sp. microorganisms possessing the characteristics of the strain BEC 441 deposited under No. I-714 at the Collection Nationale de Cultures de Micro-organismes (National Collection of Microorganism Cultures) of the Institut Pasteur, as well as strains obtained from the strain BEC 441 by mutation, these strains being capable of producing polysaccharides rich in rhamnose by fermentation in a nutrient medium containing assimilable sources of carbon and of nitrogen and inorganic substances. Application for the production of a mixture of monosaccharides having a high content of rhamnose.
