Article Synopsis
- The type of carbon source in the growth medium significantly impacts bacterial cellulose (BC) biosynthesis, affecting its properties and yield.
- The study explored five carbon sources (raffinose, sucrose, glucose, arabinose, and glycerol) to analyze their influence on BC production, fiber structure, and overall material characteristics.
- Findings demonstrated that BC could be effectively used for drug delivery, as lidocaine-loaded foams showed controlled release, emphasizing BC's potential for advanced wound healing solutions.
