Abstract

An alginate-loofa matrix was developed as a cell carrier for ethanol fermentation owing to its porous structure and strong fibrous nature. The matrix was effective for cell immobilization and had good mechanical strength and stability for long-term use. After a storage period of 4 months, yeast cells remained firmly immobilized and active.
