Biocompatibility of Bacterial Cellulose Based Biomaterials

Biocompatibility of Bacterial Cellulose Based Biomaterials

Some bacteria can synthesize cellulose when they are cultivated under adequate conditions. These bacteria produce a mat of cellulose on the top of the culture medium, which is formed by a three-dimensional coherent network of pure cellulose nanofibers. Bacterial cellulose (BC) has been widely used i...
