摘要

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSUREA method for enhancing the viscosity of a polymersolution with certain microorganisms. The intrinsic viscosityof a solution of preformed polymers is increased or stabilizedwhen that solution is subjected to microbial action. Themicroorganisms employed are incapable of a de novo synthesis ofthe subject polymers, but are nevertheless capable of increas-ing the solution vicosity. The vicosity is enhanced relativeto a solution which does not contain the microorganism.
