I am a Masters student working with several cyanobacteria, bot filamentous and
 singled celled.  I am trying to isolate and analyze the thick slime/sheath
 layer surrounding the cells.  I have had very little success with chemical and
 physical manipulations. 

If anyone has found a successful protocol for doing this please let me know.  I
 am very willing to share any info that I have!
