Marine environments represent a huge biodiversity due to their several different habitats, being abundant in unknowns’ microorganisms and a source of new biomolecules, namely exopolysaccharides (EPS) and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), with unique physical characteristics with application in pharmaceutical industry, medical, cosmetics, food and in bioplastic production. EPS are biopolymers excreted by bacteria when exposed to extreme conditions. In contrast, PHA are biodegradable bioplastics accumulated by bacteria as carbon stock and/or energy, in conditions with limited growth and carbon source in excess. The objective of this work was evaluating the capacity of bacteria isolated from marine sediments collected off the Estrem...
