Ultrasound‐assisted swelling of bacterial cellulose [PDF]

Engineering in Life Sciences, 2017
AbstractBacterial cellulose (BC) was obtained by static cultivation using commercial BC gel from scoby. BC membranes (oven dried and freeze‐dried) were swelled with 8% NaOH, in the absence and in the presence of ultrasound (US), for 30, 60, and 90 min. The influence of swelling conditions on both physico‐chemical properties and molecules entrapment was
