Bacterial cellulose (BC) has a variety of applications in biomedical fields. However, the native BC lacks certain properties, which limits its applications in various fields. The trend is nowadays towards the development of organic polymers using natural materials. In this sense, the possibility of obtaining new composite biomaterials with improved properties will prove as an interesting solution for achieving green composites BC, satisfying the need to explore minimal cost, biodegradable and renewable materials. Following these principles, this paper presents some of our studies carried out in order to obtain new eco-friendly composite biomaterials based on BC and valuable natural products such as sericin, propolis and royal jelly with appropriate biomedical applications. The main objective consisted in the biosynthesis and characterization of bacterial cellulose-based composites (BC) combined with natural products with antimicrobial properties.
