Bacterial cellulose (BC) has been studied as biomedical material due to its nanoscale fiber network, biocompatibility, and high water holding capacity. However, BC exhibits a poor rehydration after drying due to its high crystallinity. In this study, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose (HPMC) was added into a BC fermentation culture medium to interfere with the formation of BC structure in situ and create...
Many studies focus on bacterial cellulose (BC) functioning as multi-function bio-resource polymers, due to its fine fiber network, biocompatibility, high water holding capacity, and high mechanical strength. However, BC exhibits poor rehydration after drying due to its high crystallinity. This study added carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) to a BC producing culture medium, which interfered with the formation...
In an attempt to obtain bacterial cellulose (BC) with improved rehydration ability, Tween 80, urea, fluorescent brightener, hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose (HPMC) and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) were introduced into BC fermentation medium. Measurements of the mechanical strength of the resulting BCs (TBC, UBC, FBC, HBC and CBC) showed a decline except for UBC. SEM images showed that, although the...
