Potential use of biofibers for functional immobilization of lactobacillus rhamnosus NRRL 442

The present study aimed to characterize the agricultural residues of sugarcane bagasse {SB} and pineapple core {PC} for the use in immobilization of Lactobacillus rhamnosus NRRL 442. Using Standard Official Methods, SB and PC were found to contain approximately equal amount of nutrition content. The...

Using Standard Official Methods, SB and PC were found to contain approximately equal amount of nutrition content.

Under screening electron microscope, the fiber of SB has a flat and even surface; in contrast, the fiber of PC has a rough and overlapping surface which may promote the attachment or cell holding capacity during the immobilization process.
