Bacterial cellulose (BC) has emerged as a versatile biomaterial pivotal to advances in tissue engineering and composite fabrication. Owing to its intrinsic high purity, excellent biocompatibility, and ...

Researchers have modified certain bacteria with UV light so that they produce more cellulose. The basis for this is a new approach with which the researchers generate thousands of bacterial variants ...

Bacterial cellulose can be used in food, cosmetics and biomedical applications, such as implants and artificial organs. Bacterial cellulose (BC) nanofibers are promising building blocks for the ...

While specific examples of biomedical applications of nanocellulose fibers and, in particular, tissue engineering, will be given in the following sections, a brief discussion of some earlier general ...

Researchers have revealed a new molecular mechanism by which bacteria adhere to cellulose fibers in the human gut. Thanks to two different binding modes, they can withstand the shear forces in the ...

More than nine months after its outbreak, the Covid-19 pandemic’s infection curve in Indonesia is still on the rise. The virus is so contagious that personal protective equipment is imperative for ...

Bacteria produce materials that are of interest to humans, such as cellulose, silk and minerals. The advantage of producing bacteria in this way is that it is sustainable, takes place at room ...
