Characterization of Bacterial Cellulose Produced by <i>Komagataeibacter maltaceti</i> P285 Isolated from Contaminated Honey Wine

Bacterial cellulose (BC), a biopolymer, is synthesized by BC-producing bacteria. Almost all producing strains are classified in the family <i>Acetobacteraceae</i>. In this study, bacterial strain P285 was isolated from contaminated honey wine in a honey factory in northern Thailand. Base...

description Bacterial cellulose (BC), a biopolymer, is synthesized by BC-producing bacteria. Almost all producing strains are classified in the family <i>Acetobacteraceae</i>. In this study, bacterial strain P285 was isolated from contaminated honey wine in a honey factory in northern Thailand. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence identification, the strain P285 revealed 99.8% identity with <i>Komagataeibacter maltaceti</i> LMG 1529 <sup>T</sup>. <i>K. maltaceti</i> P285 produced the maximum BC production at 20–30 °C and an initial media pH of 9.0. The highest BC production in modified mineral salt medium (MSM) was exhibited when glucose (16%, <i>w</i>/<i>v</i>) and yeast extract (3.2%, <i>w</i>/<i>v</i>) were applied as carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively. When sugarcane (8–16%, <i>w</i>/<i>v</i>) or honey (ratio of honey to water = 1: 4) supplemented with yeast extract was used, the BC production was greater. The characterization of BC synthesized by <i>K. maltaceti</i> P285 was undertaken using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometry. Meanwhile, X-ray diffraction results confirmed the presence of crystalline cellulose (2θ = 18.330, 21.390 and 22.640°). The maximum temperature of BC degradation was observed at 314 °C. Tensile properties analysis of hydrated and dried BC showed breaking strength of 1.49 and 0.66 MPa, respectively. These results demonstrated that <i>K. maltaceti</i> P285 has a high potential for BC production especially when grown in high initial media pH. Therefore, the strain would be suitable as an agent to make BC, the value-added product in the related factories.
