Extraction and characterization of cellulose nanocrystals from nata de coco (Komagataeibacter xylinus): Effect of acid treatments and its application as coating in delaying the decay of ripe banana

Nata de coco or bacterial cellulose (BC) is a sustainable material that needs to be explored for novel applications. Converting the bacterial cellulose into a stable suspension of cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) adds a novel functionality to the material. This work explores the preparation of CNCs from...
