Microbial Production of Bacterial Cellulose Using Chestnut Shell Hydrolysates by Gluconacetobacter xylinus ATCC 53524. [PDF]
J Microbiol Biotechnol, 2022 Bacterial cellulose (BC) is gaining attention as a carbon-neutral alternative to plant cellulose, and as a means to prevent deforestation and achieve a carbon-neutral society. However, the high cost of fermentation media for BC production is a barrier to its industrialization. In this study, chestnut shell (CS) hydrolysates were used as a carbon source

Effects of aromatic compounds on the production of bacterial nanocellulose by Gluconacetobacter xylinus. [PDF]
Microb Cell Fact, 2014 Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a polymeric nanostructured fibrillar network produced by certain microorganisms, principally Gluconacetobacter xylinus. BC has a great potential of application in many fields. Lignocellulosic biomass has been investigated as a cost-effective feedstock for BC production through pretreatment and hydrolysis.

Influence of residual ethanol concentration on the growth of Gluconacetobacter xylinus I 2281 [PDF]
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2003 The influence of residual ethanol on metabolism of food grade Gluconacetobacter xylinus I 2281 was investigated during controlled cultivations on 35 g/l glucose and 5 g/l ethanol. Bacterial growth was strongly reduced in the presence of ethanol, which is unusual for acetic acid bacteria.
