Effects of sucrose, pluronic F-68 and cellulose on the production of microbial cellulose by Acetobacter xylinum ATCC 23769 under shaking flask culture conditions

摘要

The effect of an important variable, volume fraction, was investigated under shaking culture condition. We found that the decline of cellulose production was due to the appearance of Cel~-. Cellulose production was enahnced by addition of cellulose, sucrose and pluronic F-68. Addition of cellulose was found to eliminate the spontaneous mutation of A.xylinum at volume fraction of 0.4.
