Fingerprints of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) from activated and anaerobic granular sludges were obtained by size exclusion chromatography coupled to UV (210 and 280 nm) and fluorescence (221/350 nm (protein-like molecules) and 345/443 nm (humic-like substances)) detection. The total area below the peaks obtained with fluorescence detection is linked to the protein or humic-like substances EPS content. The EPS protein fingerprints, usually recorded with UV-280 nm, change dramatically, mainly in the relative size of peaks when they were measured by a florescence detection method. It means that the apparent molecular weight (aMW) distribution of EPS chomatophores and fluorophores is different. Protein-like and humic-like substances were found to be specific fingerprints of the EPS, affected by the type and origin of the bacterial aggregate and improve EPS sample differentiation. The protein-like fraction of EPS displays a wide range of aMW (>600 kDa-<10 kDa) whereas the humic-like substances fraction is composed of molecules of low aMW (6-<1.2 kDa). (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.
