Microbial bacterial cellulose is an organic substance produced by microbes and bacteria. Microbial and bacterial celluloses are produced by bacteria from widely known genera Sarcina, Agrobacterium, and Gluconacetobacter by means of oxidative fermentation. Some bacteria belonging to the genus Gluconacetobacter are known to produce cellulose of superior structural and mechanical properties, which can be put to novel uses in several applications. The versatility of bacterial and microbial cellulose and its enhanced properties compared to cellulose derived from plants has led to their uses in several applications and end-use industries ranging from food and beverages to healthcare.
MARKET DYNAMICS
Bacterial and microbial cellulose has a near-identical molecular structure to that of plant cellulose. However, they have a higher degree of purity, and superior properties such as tensile strength, water-retaining capacity, renewability, biocompatibility, biodegradability, and renewability in comparison to plant cellulose. This versatile nature has led to significant demand for microbial and bacterial cellulose in the medical and healthcare industries. In the medical industries, they are used to make scaffolds to protect injured tissues through tissue regeneration and wound dressing. There is also an increasing demand for microbial and bacterial cellulose in the field of healthcare for purposes like dental drug delivery, enantioselective drug delivery, transdermal drug delivery, etc. The intrinsic properties of microbial and bacterial cellulose, such as non-toxicity, bio-compatibility, and non-carcinogenicity, are attributed to the rising demand for microbial and bacterial cellulose in the forecast. The growing demand for bacterial and microbial cellulose in the paper and pulp industry for manufacturing paper in more sustainable ways is anticipated to augment the growth of the microbial and bacterial cellulose market in the forecast period. However, the high production costs involved in producing bacteria and microbial cellulose owing to factors such as poor yield, expensive culture media, high operation costs, and downstream processing is anticipated to hinder the growth of the microbial bacterial cellulose market in the forecast period.
