The latest technology of the optimization process which known as Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was applied to determine the significant variables that affect the fermentation of bacterial cellulose. The variables were selected as temperature, pH and glucose concentration of the medium. Prior RSM, OFAT was conducted to determine the minimum range for each variable. The minimum range of temperature was selected at 25, 27, 29, 31 and 33 °C. pH was at 4,5,6,7 and 8, meanwhile glucose concentration was at 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 g/L.
