Production of bacterial cellulose membranes in a modified airlift bioreactor by Gluconacetobacter xylinus

Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering, 2015
In this study, a novel bioreactor for producing bacterial cellulose (BC) is proposed. Traditional BC production uses static culture conditions and produces a gelatinous membrane. The potential for using various types of bioreactor, including a stirred tank, conventional airlift, and modified airlift with a rectangular wire-mesh draft tube, in large ...

Vitamin C enhances bacterial cellulose production in Gluconacetobacter xylinus

Carbohydrate Polymers, 2014
Influence of vitamin C (ascorbic acid) on bacterial cellulose (BC) production and crystal structure was studied using four strains of Gluconacetobacter xylinus (ATCC 10245, IFO 13693, 13772 and 13773). BC productivity of all strains was increased in presence of vitamin C (0.5% w/w), the average BC production reached 0.47 g/30 ml compared with 0.25 g/30

Altering the growth conditions of Gluconacetobacter xylinus to maximize the yield of bacterial cellulose

Carbohydrate Polymers, 2012
An extensive matrix of different growth conditions including media, incubation time, inoculum volume, surface area and media volume were investigated in order to maximize the yield of bacterial cellulose produced by Gluconacetobacter xylinus, which will be used as reinforcement material to produce fully biodegradable composites. Crystallinity was shown

Optimization of bacterial cellulose production by Gluconacetobacter xylinus using carob and haricot bean

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2016
Bacterial cellulose (BC) can be used in medical, biomedical, electronic, food, and paper industries because of its unique properties distinguishing it from plant cellulose. BC production was statistically optimized by Gluconacetobacter xylinus strain using carob and haricot bean (CHb) medium.

Thin stillage supplementation greatly enhances bacterial cellulose production by Gluconacetobacter xylinus

Carbohydrate Polymers, 2012
Thin stillage (TS), a wastewater from rice wine distillery can well sustain the growth of Gluconacetobacter xylinus for production of bacterial cellulose (BC). When used as a supplement to the traditional BC production medium (Hestrin and Schramm medium), the enhancement of BC production increased with the amount of TS supplemented in a static culture ...

Synthesis and Characterization of Dehydrogenation Polymers in Gluconacetobacter xylinus Cellulose and Cellulose/Pectin Composite

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2003
To mimic the lignin polymerization process, mats of bacterial cellulose and of a pectin/cellulose composite were used as a host matrix for in vitro polymerization of coniferyl alcohol. A diffusion cell was used to allow the diffusion of both hydrogen peroxide and coniferyl alcohol into the peroxidase impregnated cellulose mats through dialysis ...

A new method for producing microcrystalline cellulose from Gluconacetobacter xylinus and kenaf

Carbohydrate Polymers, 2011
Abstract A new preparation method of microcrystalline cellulose from Gluconacetobacter xylinus (BC) and kenaf (KF) is reported. The developed cellulose (DBC and DKF) materials showed different crystalline structures. DBC exhibited cellulose I lattice with high crystallinity (85%) whereas DKF showed cellulose II lattice with high crystalinity (70%).

Nanotextures of composites based on the interaction between hydroxyapatite and cellulose Gluconacetobacter xylinus

Glass Physics and Chemistry, 2014
Organic-inorganic composite materials with different nanotextures have been prepared using three methods based on two nanosized and biocompatible compounds—cellulose Gluconacetobacter xylinus (CGX) and hydroxyapatite Ca5(PO4)3OH (HA). The structure of the initial components and their composites has been studied using the methods of X-ray diffraction ...

Effective in situ harvest of microalgae with bacterial cellulose produced by Gluconacetobacter xylinus

Algal Research, 2018
Abstract A new biological approach was explored to harvest microalgae in situ with bacterial cellulose produced by Gluconacetobacter xylinus grown in microalgal culture by adding different proportions of glucose/yeast extract (GY) media. This study attempted to optimize this process in terms of GY media concentration, process time, microalgae cell ...

Influence of protective agents for preservation of Gluconacetobacter xylinus on its cellulose production

Cellulose, 2005
Gluconacetobacter xylinus produces extracellularly cellulose under aerobic conditions. The formed bacterial cellulose has gained much attention as temporary substitute for human skin, artificial blood vessels applicable in microsurgery or new material for cartilage replacement.
