Summary
Acetobacter aceti cells were immobilized using entrapment in Ca-alginate gel and adsorption on preformed cellulose beads. The cell number within the supports showed no significant alterations on changing temperature or pH, whereas the acetic acid production was slightly increased by immobilization.
