    Abstract: In a method for enriching and separating an anaerobic fiber-degrading bacterium on the basis of cellulosic magnetic nanoparticles, the cellulosic magnetic nanoparticles are prepared by coating cellulose on the surface of a magnetic nanomaterial. Bacteria attach to the cellulosic magnetic nanoparticles. Anaerobic fiber-degrading bacteria degrade the cellulose and then detach from the cellulosic magnetic nanoparticles, and the anaerobic fiber-degrading bacteria are obtained by means of separation using a magnet. The magnetic nano-separation technology can be used as a new technology to efficiently separate anaerobic fiber-degrading bacteria.
