Despite the ubiquity of microbial extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) in soils and aquatic environments, the roles played by EPS in the nonreductive transformation of toxic and degradation-resistant oxoanions are poorly understood. Here, we used perchlorate, which is ubiquitous in surface environments, as an initiator to study the spontaneous assembly of EPS into microcapsules involved in trapping and immobilizing oxoanions. The results confirmed that ClO4- oxoanions could be rapidly trapped in 20 min by EPS extracted from a comm
