In addition, there exists a significant likelihood of encountering yeast contamination which can prevent vinegar production. The present study investigates the detection and characterization of the <i>Pichia manshurica</i> (<i>P. manshurica</i>) biofilm on traditionally produced homemade apple vinegar. The unique characteristics of vinegar were analyzed with a focus on the constituent, known as the \"mother of vinegar\", whose composition is comprised of cellulosic biofilm and acetic acid bacteria, including <i>Gluconobacter oxydans</i> (<i>G. oxydans</i>) Briefly, <i>P. manshurica</i> was isolated from apple vinegar and characterized in terms of the effect of biofilm formation on the surface of the cellulosic film on vinegar production. Microbial identification of vinegar with/without contamination by <i>P. manshurica</i> was analyzed through MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry (MS), and biofilm was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and crystal violet staining. Accordingly, MS spectrum of isolates was identified as <i>G. oxydans</i> and <i>P. manshurica</i> with a ratio of 2.01 and 1.94, respectively. The FTIR analysis indicated that the peaks within the range of 1150-900 cm^-1 revealed a high content of polysaccharide in <i>P. manchuria-</i>contaminated biofilm, which is attributed to the stretching vibration of C-C and C-O bonds. The spectral region from 2921.51 to 2853.71 cm^-1 exhibited the characteristic of lipids in bacterial cell walls and membranes. SEM images of bacterial biofilms revealed a three-dimensional network composed of ultrafine fibers with a ribbon-like shape; however, the condensed reticulated structure was observed in contaminated biofilms. The presence of two microbial populations was detected regarding the morphological analysis. Crystal violet staining of contaminated-cellulosic biofilms visualized bacterial and yeast colonization.

Morphological, structural, and mechanical characterization of the produced wound scaffolds was performed and their in vitro bioactive component release behavior was investigated. As a result, it was observed that the degree of quaternization of chitosan was 0.89, and synthesized HTCC was soluble in acidic, basic, alkaline media and could be electrospun with PVA in the presence of a natural bioactive agent. The presence of HTCC increased Young's modulus and the tensile strength of the PVA scaffolds, while the presence of bioactive extract caused a decrease in Young's modulus and an increase in tensile strength. <i>Calendula officinalis</i> is released in a controlled and slow manner from the scaffolds within approximately 55 h.
