The research aimed to develop a low-cost and efficient method for bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) production by using residual brewer's yeast hydrolysate as a nutrient source. The results showed that the BNC obtained from the hydrolysate had similar yield and properties as those produced in a conventional chemical medium.
Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) has attained elevated interest due to its versatile structure and high resistance characteristics. Accordingly, efforts have been made in order to reduce its production costs, such as the employment of its by-products as a nutrient broth to yield the microorganism. Residual brewer's yeast is an excellent recourse, due to its high nutritional value and availability. Therefore, research which aimed to contribute to the development of a low cost, efficient and biosustainable technology for BNC production with Gluconacetobacter hansenii was carried out. BNC was obtained from residual brewer's yeast hydrolysate at pH 7.0 and five days of incubation at 30 degrees C in static culture. The hydrolysate was characterized by the amount of sugars, fatty acids, total proteins and ash content. Subsequently, BNC obtained was characterized in terms of yield, carbon conversion ratio, hydrodynamic size, crystallinity, morphology, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and surface analysis. Residual brewer's yeast hydrolysate proved to be efficient in BNC production via gluco-neogenesis with consumption of alanine, threonine and glycerol, obtaining 1.9 times the yield of the chemically defined broth adopted as standard. Additionally, properties observed in the obtained BNC were equal to those obtained from conventional chemical medium. The research contributed to bacterial nanocellulose production using by-products from the brewing industry.
