## Abstract Different cellulosic substrates are compared. Cellulose II (grinded Cellophaneยฎ) was demonstrated to be a very reactive substrate without any other pretreatment. Indeed, Cellophaneยฎ, even coated one side with PVDC or nitrocellulose, can be hydrolyzed to a very high yield of glucose in a

Abstract
Different methylated glucose derivatives and cellobiose were examined as the carbon sources for growth and cellulose formation by Acetobacter xylinum. HPLC studies were carried out to gain information about the kinetics of the utilization of the C sources used. The type and yields of the synthesized cellulose were described. Besides glucose, cellobiose was a substrate for the synthesis of this polysaccharide by the bacteria. Other methylated derivatives of glucose were not accepted for a comparable synthesis of this polymer. An estimation of citrate in an unmodified culture liquid (SH medium) showed utilization in a late phase of cultivation. The influence of this organic acid on the pH value, cellulose synthesis and growth is described. By the application of citric acid as a sole carbon source โgelโlikeโ forms of cellulose were formed generally.

However, the fragmentation pattern depends also on conditions that cannot be controlled by the operator, e.g. the geometry of the source or the mode of transfer of the ions
