Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) has been produced utilizing a range of techniques, which include continuous culture techniques employing common bioprocesses like bioreactors, as well as batch and fed-batch growth techniques. The final application of BNC dictates the manufacturing strategy since the procedure directly affects the supramolecular structure and mechanical and physical characteristics of BNC. Techniques for the production of bacterial nanocellulose are described in this chapter.
