Definitions

  • the present application relates to the field of microbiology and in particular isolated and verified bacterial strains for biocellulose production .
  • a bacterial cultivation system for the production of cellulose gel (HSBC) containing Gluconacetobacter xylinus (G. xylinus) in an interface system between an aqueous and an oily phase in the presence of glucose and mannitol at 30°C is known (Horu Hoshia, Kazuyoshi Yamazakia, Yuki Satob, Takaya Shidaa, Takao Aoyagia, Production of hollow-type spherical bacterial cellulose as a controlled release device by newly designed floating cultivation, Heliyon 4, 2018, e00873) .
  • the inventors of the present invention have isolated new bacterial strains belonging to the genus Bacillus and Brevundimonas capable of producing biocellulose.
  • Said strains have peculiar characteristics compared to strains known in the art. In particular, they are able to synthesise biocellulose under room temperature conditions, i.e. without energy expenditure, compared to known processes which take place at a temperature of around 30°C. In the process, no specific saline solutions are used or prepared, but plain water is used, and the culture medium is not a limiting factor and different types can be used in the bacterial culture without affecting the success of the process for biocellulose production. In contrast to what is known in the art in which the culture media are added with glucose and mannitol, the former at concentrations of at least 3%, in the culture of the present invention glucose or fructose at 1.5% is added.
