Bacterial building blocks Cellulose nanofibres are widely available, strong and recyclable. In general, cellulose nanofibres made from tree pulp are several micrometres-long or less, and therefore ...

Meanwhile, 3D-printed stents, though precise ... the researchers acknowledge that several hurdles remain before widespread clinical use. While promising, bacterial cellulose production must be ...

Cellulose polymers are being produced by bacterial fermentation of organic matter, and used to create strong bioplastics. Researchers in Japan are now looking to improve polymer production levels ...

Cellulose is the Earth's most abundant and widespread natural polysaccharide, commonly found in plant cell walls, algae or synthesized by certain bacteria. "I chose cellulose as a research object ...
