Abstract
⺠Cellulose production by new bacteria of Gluconacetobacter genus was studied. ⺠Gluconacetobacter medellensis has the capability to produce cellulose in media with low pH. ⺠Cellulose characteristics are not modified when this is synthetized to low pH. ⺠Cell metabolism is not inhibited at low pH, the culture media can be reused in BC production. ⺠This new strain can be used to potentiate the production BC to benefit industrial use.
