Characterization of <i>Komagataeibacter</i> Isolate Reveals New Prospects in Waste Stream Valorization for Bacterial Cellulose Production

<i>Komagataeibacter</i> spp. has been used for the bioconversion of industrial wastes and lignocellulosic hydrolysates to bacterial cellulose (BC). Recently, studies have demonstrated the capacity of <i>Komagataeibacter</i> spp. in the biotransformation of inhibitors found in...
