Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a promising packing material as it is biodegradable, non-toxic, has good mechanical properties, and can form bonds with foreign particles. Meanwhile, P. acidilactici postbiotics (metabolites) have the potential to be a natural food preservative as they contain antimicrobial compounds that are heat- and pH-stable. This research aims to develop a novel antimicrobia…
Wound dressings play a crucial role in promoting efficient wound closure and healing by providing an environment conducive to tissue repair. Traditional wound dressings, such as cellulose-based gauze, often exhibit challenges in adhesion and exudate absorption, necessitating frequent replacements that may cause additional trauma. Biocellulose (BC), derived from bacteria, presents a natural c…
Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a biopolymer currently being coveted for its versatility, sustainable sourcing and biodegradability. The Indonesia International Institute for Life Sciences (i3L) lab has been conducting research on BC fermentation and surrounding BC produced by the kombucha isolate Komagataeibacter intermedius, with past findings showing a great prospect of the bacteria being abl…
Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is a notable species reared in the aquaculture industry. It is famous for its protein content, rapid growth rate and adaptability in various types of water. It makes Tilapia advantageous in aquaculture for mass production through intensification. However, the stack volume of rearing may lead to disease manifestation by bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses…
