Cellulose Biogenesis: Polymerization and Crystallization are Coupled Processes in Acetobacter xylinum

Calcofluor White ST, a stilbene derivative used commercially as an optical brightener for cellulose, increased the rate of glucose polymerization into cellulose by resting cells of the gram-negative bacterium Acetobacter xylinum. This bacterium normally produces a ribbon of cellulose that is a compo...
