Abstract
Abstract Bacterial cellulose (BC), produced by aerobic bacteria received ample of attention due to its unique physiochemical properties compared to plant cellulose. Intense researches on BC mainly focus on biosynthetic process to achieve low-cost preparation and high cellulose production. BC has been used as biomaterial for medical field, electrical instrument and food ingredient. However, BC alone has limited capabilities to fulfil current demand on high-performance biomaterials. Hence, BC composite has been introduced to enhance BC properties through addition of reinforcement materials. This review discusses current knowledge in fermentation process and potential application of BC including its application in food industry.
