Statistical optimization of bioprocess parameters for enhanced production of bacterial cellulose from K. saccharivorans BC-G1.

ABSTRACT: Bacterial Cellulose (BC) offers a wide range of applications across various industries, including food, biomedical, and textiles, owing to its distinctive properties. Its unique 3D reticulated network of cellulose nanofibers, imparts excellent mechanical qualities, a high water-holding capacity, and thermal stability. Additionally, it possesses remarkable biocompatibility, biodegradability, high crystallinity, and purity. These attributes have offered significant interest in BC within both academic and industrial sectors. However, BC production is associated with high costs due to the use of expensive growth media and low yields. The study reports the potential of our indigenous isolate, Komagataeibacter saccharivorans BC-G1, as BC producer. Statistical optimization of BC production was ca
