Never-dried MC membranes preparation

MC produced by the vinegar fermentation bacterium A. xylinum is synthesized in the form of twisting ribbons, which in stationary culture forms a thick, gelatinous membrane on the surface of a liquid medium. The membrane formed in such conditions is characterized by the 3D structure made of an ultrafine network of
