Analytical techniques including GC-MS, FTIR, XRD, zeta potential, and elemental analysis were applied to characterize the EPS. The purified EPS was found to be a water-soluble, negatively charged, amorphous heteropolysaccharide predominantly composed of mannose and glucose, with minor proportions of rhamnose, arabinose, galactose, and xylose. The total carbohydrate yield was 7.6 g/L. FTIR confirmed the presence of typical carbohydrate functional groups, while zeta potential analysis indicated a moderate surface charge (−9.71 mV), implying colloidal stability. Cytotoxicity evaluation using the CCD-1079Sk fibroblast cell line showed no significant toxicity at concentrations up to 500 µg/mL. These findings highlight the potential of SL60-derived EPS as a safe bioactive compound with possible applications in functional food development and health-related products.</dc:description><dc:publisher>Ataturk Universitesi</dc:publisher><dc:date>2026</dc:date><dc:type>Article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/gumushane/13734</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>https://doi.org/10.17097/agricultureatauni.1641981</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>2979-9686</dc:identifier><dc:language>en</dc:language><dc:relation>Research in Agricultural Sciences</dc:relation><dc:rights>info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess</dc:rights><dc:type>info:eu-repo/semantics/article</dc:type><dc:identifier>https://gumushane-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/gumushane/13734</dc:identifier></oai_dc:dc></metadata></record></GetRecord></OAI-PMH>
