Abstract
A material with a scaffold comprising a series of at least partially spaced fibers and gas vesicles locates between fibers. The gas vesicles comprise external anchoring modules that are effective to anchor the gas vesicles to the fibers.
Claims15
An aerogel material comprising:
- a bacterial cellulose-based scaffold comprising a series of at least partially spaced fibers;
- and
- bacterially-derived gas vesicles located at least between fibers, wherein the gas vesicles comprise external cellulose binding modules (CBM) that anchor the gas vesicles to the fibers, and wherein the cellulose binding modules comprise CBM48 from at least one of Komagataeibacter sucrofermentans and Micromonas pusilla.
