Bacterial nanocellulose production and biomedical applications
The Journal of Biomedical Research, 2021 Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) is a homopolymer of β-1,4 linked glycose, which is synthesized by Acetobacter using simple culturing methods to allow inexpensive and environmentally friendly small- and large-scale production. Depending on the growth media and types of fermentation methods, ultra-pure cellulose can be obtained with different physio ...

Bacterial Nanocellulose and Its Medical Usage
Chemické listy, 2022 Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) is produced by some bacterial strains to enable them to keep on the surface of cultural media. Compared to "common" cellulose, BNC becomes even more popular for its higher crystallinity and better mechanical properties. It can be used in a broad spectrum of industrial applications.

Nano meets the sheet: adhesive-free application of nanocellulosic suspensions in paper conservation
Heritage Science, 2017 Historical papers are often locally damaged by exogenous influences and/or have endogenously degraded paper areas. The stabilization of such papers is very important because further use of the object can cause additional damage.

Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Tracking Bacterial Nanocellulose in Animal Tissues by Fluorescence Microscopy
Nanomaterials, 2022 The potential of nanomaterials in food technology is nowadays well-established. However, their commercial use requires a careful risk assessment, in particular concerning the fate of nanomaterials in the human body. Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC), a nanofibrillar polysaccharide, has been used as a food product for many years in Asia.
