Abstrakt: Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a biopolymer of great significance to the medical, pharmaceutical, and food industries. However, a high concentration of carbon sources (mainly glucose) and other culture media components is usually required to promote a significant yield of BC, which increases the bioprocess cost. Thus, optimization strategies (conventional or statistical) have become relevant for the cost-effective production of bacterial cellulose. Additionally, this biopolymer may present new properties through modifications with exogenous compounds. The present review, explores and discusses recent studies (last five years) that report the optimization of BC production and its yield as well as in situ and ex situ modifications, resulting in improved mechanical, antioxidant, and antimicrobial properties of BC for new applications.
