Genetic Impacts on the Structure and Mechanics of Cellulose Made by Bacteria (Adv. Sci. 33/2025)

Abstract: Cellulose Made by Bacteria Scanning electron micrograph of cellulose made by evolved bacteria, highlighting ribbon-like structures that self-organize into circular patterns within the fiber network. The hierarchical arrangement of thicker ribbons within a network of thinner fibers illustrates the potential of the evolved strain in generating cellulose architectures with enhanced mechanical properties combined with high surface area and fluid permeability. More details can be found in article number 2505075 by André R. Studart and co-workers.
