Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of microbial engineering, in particular to a xyloglucanacetobacter strain capable of producing high-yield bacterial cellulose in lignocellulose hydrolysate and its application. Background Art

[0002] Bacterial cellulose is an extracellular polysaccharide secreted by different species of bacteria. It is considered to be an environmentally friendly biomaterial that does not cause ecological pollution. It is also biodegradable and has excellent adhesion, skin elasticity, softness and moisturizing effects.

[0003] Although bacterial cellulose, as a promising biodegradable nanomaterial, has received significant attention from academia and industry in various research fields due to its excellent properties, its large-scale industrial application is still limited due to low productivity and high production cost. The key factor to solve the economic feasibility is to reduce the cost of raw materials, especially the cost of carbon sources. In order to achieve favorable yields and controlled costs, it has become a hot issue to find new and efficient raw materials or carbon sources from agricultural waste or industrial by-products to increase the yield of bacterial cellulose. The lignocellulosic hydrolysate prepared from agricultural waste or industrial by-products is rich in sugars and can be used for further fermentation to maximize the utilization of agricultural waste. However, some inhibitors contained in the lignocellulosic hydrolysate are not conducive to the production of bacterial cellulose. Therefore, using lignocellulosic hydrolysate as a suitable carbon source for culturing inhibitor-tolerant Bacillus xylosus can save carbon source costs and achieve green production.

The obtained product contains a large amount of bacterial cellulose, is suitable for the development of medical and cosmetic products, can be used for the harmless treatment of industrial wastewater, can effectively reduce the pollution of inhibitors such as furfural to the environment and the harm to human health, provides green, safe and efficient degradation and reuse of lignocellulose hydrolysate and bacterial cellulose production methods for related enterprises, and can greatly reduce the production cost of bacterial cellulose.
