Recent advances in bacterial cellulose (2014, background): “It is hypothesized that bacteria produce cellulose for the protection from ultraviolet radiation and harsh chemical environment and access to oxygen (Brown 2004; Eichhorn et al. 2001; Iguchi et al. 2000; Klemm et al. 2005; Putra et al. 2008; Retegi et al. 2010; Shoda and”
Cellulose nanofibrils: Challenges and possibilities as a paper additive or coating material – A review (2014, background): “The synthesis was for a long time a mystery but thanks to developments in microscopy, the enzyme complexes associated with cellulose synthesis have been revealed (Brown 2004).”
Physical structure variations of bacterial cellulose produced by different Komagataeibacter xylinus strains and carbon sources in static and agitated conditions (2018, background): “BC structures are formed by extracellular-excreted nanofibers produced by various species of bacteria such as Acetobacter, Aerobacter, Azotobacter, Agrobacterium, Achromobacter, Gluconacetobacter, Rhizobium, Sarcina and Salmonella (Brown 2004; Jahn et al. 2011; Morgan et al. 2013).”
Effect of different additives on bacterial cellulose production by Acetobacter xylinum and analysis of material property (2009, background): “One approach to reduce the demand from plants is the production of cellulose using a microbial system (Lynd et al. 2002; Brown 2004 ).”
