Abstract:17 amino acids were used to examine their effects on production of bacterial cellulose (BC) byAcetobacter xylinum. It found that these amino acids can be classified into three groups based on BC production: the efficient group (His/Glu/Asp/Thr/Leu/Ala/Cys), the less efficient one (Met/Ser/ Arg/Phe/Val/Pro/Try/Cystine/Tyr) and the non-efficient one (Lys). Among the efficient group, effects of amino acids on BC were insignificant except His through a L8(27) factorial design, so it concluded that His was the best… Show more
