Application of the “SCOBY” and Kombucha Tea for the Production of Fermented Milk Drinks [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2021 For the production of fermented milk drinks, cultures of microorganisms other than traditionally applied can be used. Such possibilities are created by the symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY), which is used to produce kombucha. The aim of the study was to evaluate the possibility of using kombucha and the SCOBY for fermented milk drink ...

From Grave to Cradle: Kombucha Waste for Sustainable Electronics. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)This study introduces a sustainable method to purify kombucha bacterial cellulose (KBC) with sodium bicarbonate and hydrogen peroxide, avoiding harsh chemicals. KBC films are patterned with gold and function as pressure sensors for flatfoot gait detection. At the end‐of‐life, the KBC‐based device biodegrades in soil, leaving environmentally benign gold

SCOBY Cellulose Modified with Apple Powder—Biomaterial with Functional Characteristics
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023 The need for new non-animal and non-petroleum-based materials is strongly emphasized in the sustainable and green economy. Waste materials have proven a valuable resource in this regard. In fact, there have been quite a large number of goods obtained from wastes called “Vegan leather” that have gained the clothing market’s attention in recent years. In

Process‐Based Design of Light Kombucha From Mulberry Coproducts: Effects of Agavins Degree of Polymerization on Physicochemical, Technofunctional, and Functional Potential [PDF]
Int J Food SciReducing residual sugars in kombucha while preserving fermentation performance and consumer acceptance remains a key technological challenge. This study evaluated the effect of partially replacing sucrose with agavins of different degrees of polymerization (DPs) on the physicochemical, technofunctional, and functional properties of kombucha formulated ...

An Inexpensive and Ultrasound‐Compatible Lumbar Puncture Model Using SCOBY as an Effective Simulation Tool: The DIY LP Study [PDF]
Emerg Med AustralasABSTRACT Objectives Lumbar puncture (LP) simulators have high costs and suboptimal realism. This study aimed to develop an affordable, high‐fidelity and ultrasound‐compatible model. Methods We created a LP Simulator using three‐dimensional printing, silicon, ballistic gel and symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY).

A comparison of kombucha SCOBY bacterial cellulose purification methods [PDF]
SN Applied Sciences, 2020 Kombucha SCOBY pellicle formed as a waste product in the kombucha tea fermentation industry can be used as a potential source for bacterial cellulose. We have compared four simple, scalable purification methods for the purification of this jelly like cellulosic matrix containing bacteria, yeast cells, proteins and polyphenols as impurities.
