A strain of Acetobacter xylinum was isolated from the New Zealand environment. The characteristics affecting cellulose production by A. xylinum were investigated and compared to previously isolated strains. The effect of various environmental parameters on the mechanical strength and water holding capacity of the bacterial cellulose was also ...

Bacterial Cellulose as Biomaterial
2011Cellulose is a biopolymer that has long been used as a biomedical material and is still used in a modified form in hemodialysis membranes and as a carrier material in drug release systems. The different sources of cellulose that have not yet been fully explored, for example, bacterial cellulose (BC), might possess properties that are needed for some ...

Bacterial Cellulose Nanocomposites
2019Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a biopolymer with high purity of cellulose and excellent mechanical properties. Increased interest in the use of natural polymer makes BC as an excellent alternative for plant cellulose. Although both celluloses consist of unbranched pellicle with chemically equivalent structure, bacterial cellulose exhibits greater ...

Carboxymethylation of Bacterial Cellulose
Macromolecular Symposia, 2010AbstractThe carboxymethylation of bacterial cellulose (BC) was studied under typical heterogeneous reaction conditions. It was found that the BC possesses a significantly lower reactivity compared to wood cellulose converted under comparable conditions.

Cellulose in Bacterial Biofilms
2019Many bacteria produce cellulose as an exopolysaccharide component of the extracellular matrix in biofilms, which are large aggregates of bacterial cells often attached to abiotic or biotic surfaces. Cellulose has been particularly well studied in two model bacteria, Komagataeibacter xylinus and Escherichia coli. The widely conserved bacterial cellulose

The structure of bacterial cellulose
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta, 1949Abstract Electron microscopic observations show that the cellulose built by Acetobacterium xylinum occurs in the form of fibres having about the same diameter (ca 250 A) as that of the fibrils of cellulose from the cell walls of nemerous plants.
