spectra of bacterial cellulose (BC). Polymers such as cellulose have several domain structures, and their structure and dynamics are reflected in the variety of solid-state spectra derived from ...

Bacterial building blocks Cellulose nanofibres are widely available, strong and recyclable. In general, cellulose nanofibres made from tree pulp are several micrometres-long or less, and therefore ...

A study has elucidated the mechanism by which bacterial cellulose mediates plant tissue ... have identified for the first time the precise molecular mechanism underlying the process.

Intriguingly, patches made from plant-produced cellulose did not have the same effect. A chemical analysis revealed that the bacterial cellulose contained plant hormones, probably produced by the ...

Cell structure Description Function Cell type Cell wall Freely permeable layer surrounding cell membrane. The cell wall of plant cells is made from cellulose. This gives them a rigid structure.
