Tartalmi kivonat:Xanthan is extracellular secondary metabolite of bacteria from the genus Xanthomonas and the most important microbial polysaccharide as well as significant industrial biopolymer. Commercial xanthan is relatively expensive due to usage of glucose or sucrose as carbon sources in the xanthan production media. On the other hand, the production of biodiesel in the world is in the rise. The main effluent generated by the biodiesel industry is crude glycerol. The high costs of crude glycerol purification and degradation of environmental quality caused by its disposal in untreated form are the reasons for the increase in research about alternative methods that can be potentially used to convert crude glycerol into a valuable product. The promising alternative is microbial conversion of crude glycerol. The purpose of this study is to discuss data from available scientific and professional literature related to the possibility of using crude glycerol as a substrate for the production of xanthan.
