Using a matrix realization, generic elements of the supergroups U(m/n) and OSP(m/2n) are obtained through the exponentiation of the corresponding super Lie algebra elements. The emphasis is put on the contribution of the odd part. The application to the factorization problem is given, and the relationship with nonlinear differential superequations is clarified.
