Abstract
Solidified media that employ a porous matrix of nanofibrous cellulose are described. The physicochemical stability of the porous structure allows the development of solidified media that can support the growth of extremophiles, such as acidophilic Acidiphilium, alkaliphilic Bacillus, thermophilic Geobacillus and Thermus, alkalithermophilic Bacillus, and acidothermophilic Sulfolobus microbes. The cellulose-supported media have several advantages over agar- and gellan gum-derived media, including versatility and stability.Entities:
