Producnon of Xanthan gum and the growth of Xanthomonas campestris NRRL-B-1459 were studied by using pretreated sugar beet molasses and com steep liquor (CSL) as cheap carbon and nitrogen source respectively. The gum production is highly affected by initial concentrations of beet molasses and CSL. Maximum gum production was observed by using beet molasses (40g/l) and corn steep liquor (10g/l).
