Abstract
Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) is a polymer similar in chemical structure to plant cellulose and has higher degrees of polymerization and crystallinity, high water-holding capacity and mechanical strength compared to plant cellulose. A promising source of cellulose-containing raw materials for the production of BNC is miscanthus variety Kamis. Chemical treatment and biocatalytic hydrolysis made it possible to obtain nutrient media for the biosynthesis of BNC. As a result, BNC was obtained with a high yield of 10.4-10.7%, which was comparable to the yield on a synthetic nutrient medium of 11.8%.
