Besides the most popular isolation of cellulose from plants the principal pathways of
cellulose include the biosynthesis by different types of microorganisms, the enzymatic in …

In this work, bacterial cellulose (BC) nanofibres were used as the biodegradable
reinforcement. The BC nanofibres were incorporated in the starch plasticised with glycerol …

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) and bacterial cellulose (BC) are both excellent materials for use in
biomaterial areas. The former has outstanding osteoconductivity and bioactivity and the …

Biocomposites consisting of hydroxyapatite (HAp) and natural polymers such as collagen,
chitosan, chitin, and gelatin have been extensively investigated. However, studies on the …

In this paper, spherical Fe3O4/bacterial cellulose (BC) nanocomposites as adsorbents for
heavy metal ions were biosynthesized from Gluconacetobacter xylinum by agitation …

The optimum fermentation conditions for the production of cellulose by a newly isolated
Acetobacter sp. A9 were determined by shaken cultures. The strain was able to produce …

Acetobacter strains are bacteria that can synthesize cellulose when grown in a complex
medium containing glucose. The effect of the components of a synthetic medium on bacterial …

A new carbon source for bacterial cellulose production was successfully developed from
konjac powder by using dilute acid hydrolysis and was detoxified by different alkaline …

Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) has desirable properties for wound healing such as high
purity, good shape retention, and high water binding capacity. Bromelain is a protease found …

On static cultivation, Acetobacter xylinum synthesizes bacterial cellulose (BC) that has a gel-
like fibril network with inappropriate orientation at the air/liquid interface. This can be easily …
