Behrouznejad B, Sadat SB, Masaeli E. The orchestration of sustained drug delivery by bacterial cellulose/gelatin nanocomposites reinforced with carboxylic carbon nanotubes. Carbohydr Polym 2024; 333:121917. [PMID: 38494242 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2024.121917] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2023] [Revised: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 02/04/2024] [Indexed: 03/19/2024]
Abstract
Recently, modifying bacterial cellulose (BC) by compositing it with other nano-biomaterials has become inevitable to achieve its desired properties in drug delivery. To address this, our study endeavors to utilize an in-situ fabrication method for the creation of a multifunctional BC/gelatin (BC/Gel) platform reinforced with carboxylic multi-walled carbon nanotubes (cMWCNTs) as a sustainable delivery model of biomolecules. Incipiently, cMWCNTs were loaded with human serum albumin (HSA) as a drug model, with an optimized nanoparticle-to-protein ratio of 1:5 and loading efficiency of 90.0 ± 1.0 % before incorporation into BC/Gel hydrogels. By comparison, nanocomposition improved the surface area and overall porosity of BC/Gel up to 58.0 ± 1.3 m2/g and 85.5 ± 1.1 %, respectively. Likewise, significant wettability of 44.0 ± 0.1° and dramatic biodegradation rate of 36.9 ± 1.2 % were other exceptionally gained attributes. Meanwhile, with a Zero-order kinetic mechanism, CNT-HSA integration facilitated the controlled release of 56.0 ± 0.9 % HSA over 7 days. Drug-loaded nanocomposites showcased >70 % viability during in vitro cellular trials using Human Foreskin Fibroblasts (HFF). Overall, BC/Gel/CNT-HSA nanocomposite exhibited favorable cell behavior, devoid of cytotoxic manifestations. Consequently, this BC-based nanocomposite scaffold implicates the premiere capability in the sustained delivery of an extended range of protein biomolecules, offering a promising therapeutic avenue for bolstering tissue regeneration.

Biotechnol Lett 2024:10.1007/s10529-024-03477-0. [PMID: 38771508 DOI: 10.1007/s10529-024-03477-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2023] [Revised: 02/10/2024] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/22/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Cardiac tissue engineering is suggested as a promising approach to overcome problems associated with impaired myocardium. This is the first study to investigate the use of BC and gelatin for cardiomyocyte adhesion and growth. METHODS Bacterial cellulose (BC) membranes were produced by Komagataeibacter xylinus and coated or mixed with gelatin to make gelatin-coated BC (BCG) or gelatin-mixed BC (mBCG) scaffolds, respectively. BC based-scaffolds were characterized via SEM, FTIR, XRD, and AFM. Neonatal rat-ventricular cardiomyocytes (nr-vCMCs) were cultured on the scaffolds to check the capability of the composites for cardiomyocyte attachment, growth and expansion. RESULTS The average nanofibrils diameter in all scaffolds was suitable (~ 30-65 nm) for nr-vCMCs culture. Pore diameter (≥ 10 µm), surface roughness (~ 182 nm), elastic modulus (0.075 ± 0.015 MPa) in mBCG were in accordance with cardiomyocyte requirements, so that mBCG could better support attachment of nr-vCMCs with high concentration of gelatin, and appropriate surface roughness. Also, it could better support growth and expansion of nr-vCMCs due to submicron scale of nanofibrils and proper elasticity (~ 0.075 MPa). The viability of nr-vCMCs on BC and BCG scaffolds was very low even at day 2 of culture (~ ≤ 40%), but, mBCG could promote a metabolic active state of nr-vCMCs until day 7 (~ ≥ 50%). CONCLUSION According to our results, mBCG scaffold was the most suitable composite for cardiomyocyte culture, regarding its physicochemical and cell characteristics. It is suggested that improvement in mBCG stability and cell attachment features may provide a convenient scaffold for cardiac tissue engineering.

Abstract
Interest in bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) has grown due to its purity, mechanical properties, and biological compatibility. To address the need for alternative carbon sources in the industrial production of BNC, this study focuses on banana leaves, discarded during harvesting, as a valuable source. Banana midrib juice, rich in nutrients and reducing sugars, is identified as a potential carbon source. An optimal culture medium was designed using a simplex-centroid mixing design and evaluated in a 10 L bioreactor. Techniques such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) were used to characterize the structural, thermal, and morphological properties of BNC. Banana midrib juice exhibited specific properties, such as pH (5.64), reducing sugars (15.97 g/L), Trolox (45.07 µM), °Brix (4.00), and antioxidant activity (71% DPPH). The model achieved a 99.97% R-adjusted yield of 6.82 g BNC/L. Physicochemical analyses revealed distinctive attributes associated with BNC. This approach optimizes BNC production and emphasizes the banana midrib as a circular solution for BNC production, promoting sustainability in banana farming and contributing to the sustainable development goals.

Abstract
Cellulose, the most abundant polymer on Earth, has been widely utilized in its nanoform due to its excellent properties, finding applications across various scientific fields. As the demand for nanocellulose continues to rise and its ease of use becomes apparent, there has been a significant increase in research publications centered on this biomaterial. Nanocellulose, in its different forms, has shown tremendous promise as a tissue engineered scaffold for regeneration and repair. Particularly, nanocellulose-based composites and scaffolds have emerged as highly demanding materials for both soft and hard tissue engineering. Medical practitioners have traditionally relied on collagen and its analogue, gelatin, for treating tissue damage. However, the limited mechanical strength of these biopolymers restricts their direct use in various applications. This issue can be overcome by making hybrids of these biopolymers with nanocellulose. This review presents a comprehensive analysis of the recent and most relevant publications focusing on hybrid composites of collagen and gelatin with a specific emphasis on their combination with nanocellulose. While bone and skin tissue engineering represents two areas where a majority of researchers are concentrating their efforts, this review highlights the use of nanocellulose-based hybrids in these contexts.

Abstract
Primary material supply is the heart of engineering and sciences. The depletion of natural resources and an increase in the human population by a billion in 13 to 15 years pose a critical concern regarding the sustainability of these materials; therefore, functionalizing renewable materials, such as nanocellulose, by possibly exploiting their properties for various practical applications, has been undertaken worldwide. Nanocellulose has emerged as a dominant green natural material with attractive and tailorable physicochemical properties, is renewable and sustainable, and shows biocompatibility and tunable surface properties. Nanocellulose is derived from cellulose, the most abundant polymer in nature with the remarkable properties of nanomaterials. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the methods used for nanocellulose preparation, structure-property and structure-property correlations, and the application of nanocellulose and its nanocomposite materials. This article differentiates the classification of nanocellulose, provides a brief account of the production methods that have been developed for isolating nanocellulose, highlights a range of unique properties of nanocellulose that have been extracted from different kinds of experiments and studies, and elaborates on nanocellulose potential applications in various areas. The present review is anticipated to provide the readers with the progress and knowledge related to nanocellulose. Pushing the boundaries of nanocellulose further into cutting-edge applications will be of particular interest in the future, especially as cost-effective commercial sources of nanocellulose continue to emerge.

Abstract
Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a biopolymer with applications in numerous industries such as food and pharmaceutical sectors. In this study, various hydrocolloids including modified starches (oxidized starch-1404 and hydroxypropyl starch-1440), locust bean gum, xanthan gum (XG), guar gum, and carboxymethyl cellulose were added to the Hestrin-Schramm medium to improve the production performance and microstructure of BC by Gluconacetobacter entanii isolated from coconut water. After 14-day fermentation, medium supplemented with 0.1% carboxymethyl cellulose and 0.1% XG resulted in the highest BC yield with dry BC content of 9.82 and 6.06 g/L, respectively. In addition, scanning electron microscopy showed that all modified films have the characteristic three-dimensional network of cellulose nanofibers with dense structure and low porosity as well as larger fiber size compared to control. X-ray diffraction indicated that BC fortified with carboxymethyl cellulose exhibited lower crystallinity while Fourier infrared spectroscopy showed characteristic peaks of both control and modified BC films.

Abstract
Modern technology has enabled the isolation of nanocellulose from plant-based fibers, and the current trend focuses on utilizing nanocellulose in a broad range of sustainable materials applications. Water is generally seen as a detrimental component when in contact with nanocellulose-based materials, just like it is harmful for traditional cellulosic materials such as paper or cardboard. However, water is an integral component in plants, and many applications of nanocellulose already accept the presence of water or make use of it. This review gives a comprehensive account of nanocellulose-water interactions and their repercussions in all key areas of contemporary research: fundamental physical chemistry, chemical modification of nanocellulose, materials applications, and analytical methods to map the water interactions and the effect of water on a nanocellulose matrix.

Marine Collagen-Based Antibacterial Film Reinforced with Graphene and Iron Oxide Nanoparticles. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 24:ijms24010648.

Abstract
It has become more widely available to use biopolymer-based films as alternatives to conventional plastic-based films due to their non-toxic properties, flexibility, and affordability. However, they are limited in application due to deficiencies in their properties. The marine collagen was the specimen for the present study. Thus, the main objective was to reinforce marine collagen-based films with 1.0% (w/w of the dry polymer weight) of iron oxide nanoparticles (IO-NPs), graphene oxide nanoparticles (GO-NPs), or a combination of both oxides (GO-NPs/IO-NPs) as antibacterial and antioxidant additives to overcome some of the limitations of the film. In this way, the nanoparticles were incorporated into the film-forming solution (2% w/v in acetic acid, 0.05 M) and processed by casting. Thereafter, the films were dried and analyzed for their physicochemical, mechanical, microstructural, and functional properties. The results show that the effective combination of GO-NPs/IO-NPs enhanced the physicochemical properties by increasing the water contact angle (WCA) of the films from 77.2 to 84.4° and their transparency (T) from 0.5 to 5.2. Furthermore, these nanoparticles added antioxidant and antibacterial value to the films, with free radical inhibition of up to 95.8% and 23.8 mm of bacteria growth inhibition (diameter). As a result, both types of nanoparticles are proposed as suitable additives to be incorporated into films and enhance their different properties.

Abstract
Manipulation of bacterial cellulose (BC) morphology is important to tune BC properties to meet specific application requirements. In this study, gelatin was added to cultivation media at 0.1-7.5 wt %. After cultivations, gelatin was removed from the BC matrix, and its effects on BC matrix characteristics and fermentation production efficiency were determined. Higher contents of gelatin in cultivation media (up to 5%) resulted in BC that, from scanning electron microscopy observations, had larger pore sizes and formation of a lamina morphology that was highly unidirectional. Crystallinity remained unchanged between 0.1 and 5 wt % gelatin concentrations (92-95%); however, it decreased to 86% at a gelatin concentration of 7.5 wt %. Mechanical properties showed a positive trend as both the specific modulus and specific strength values increased as the gelatin concentration increased to 5 wt %. A breakdown in the ordered structure of the BC matrix occurs at 7.5 wt % gelatin, with corresponding decreases in the specific modulus and specific strength of the BC. The productivity increased by almost 4-fold relative to the control, reaching 1.64 g·L-1h-1 at the 2.5 wt % gelatin content. Also, the water holding capacity increased by 3-fold relative to the control, reaching 306.6 g of water per g BC at the 5.0 wt % gelatin content. The changes observed in these BC metrics can be explained based on literature findings associated with the formation of gelatin aggregates in the cultivation media and an increase in gel stiffness seen at higher media gelatin concentrations. Overall, this work provides a roadmap for manipulating BC properties while creating highly organized lamina morphologies.

Abstract
Nowadays, biopolymer-based films are being developed as an alternative to conventional plastic-based films, mainly because they are non-toxic, flexible, inexpensive, and widely available. However, they are restricted in their applications due to several deficiencies in their properties. Accordingly, the reinforcement of these materials with nanoparticles/nanofillers could overcome some of their shortcomings, especially those processed by green methods. Green synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) are highly suggested to overcome these deficiencies. Therefore, the main aim of this work was to develop different biopolymer-based films from cellulose acetate (CA), chitosan (CH), and gelatin (GE) reinforced with ZnO-NPs prepared by casting, and to assess their different properties. The results show the improvements produced by the incorporation of ZnO-NPs (1% w/w) into the CA, CH, and GE systems. Thus, the water contact angles (WCAs) increased by about 12, 13, and 14%, while the water vapor permeability (WVP) decreased by about 14, 6, and 29%, the water solubility (WS) decreased by about 23, 6, and 5%, and the transparency (T) increased by about 19, 31, and 20% in the CA, CH, and GE systems, respectively. Furthermore, the mechanical properties were enhanced by increasing the ultimate tensile strength (UTS) (by about 39, 13, and 26%, respectively) and Young's modulus (E) (by about 70, 34, and 63%, respectively), thereby decreasing the elongation at the break (εmax) (by about 56, 23, and 49%, respectively) and the toughness (by about 50, 4, and 30%, respectively). Lastly, the antioxidant properties were enhanced by 34, 49, and 39%, respectively.

Abstract
Nowadays, natural polymer-based films are considered potentially environmentally friendly alternatives to conventional plastic films, due to many advantageous properties, including their easy processability, high flexibility, non-toxicity, low cost, high availability, and environmental safety. However, they are limited in their application by a number of shortcomings, including their high water solubility and vapor permeability as well as their poor opacity and low mechanical resistance. Thus, nanoparticles, such as green FexOy-NPs, can be used to overcome the drawbacks associated with these materials. Therefore, the aim of this study was to develop three different polymer-based films (gelatin-based, cellulose acetate-based and chitosan-based films) containing green synthesized FexOy-NPs (1.0% w/w of the initial polymer weight) as an additive to improve film properties. This was accomplished by preparing the different films using the casting method and examining their physicochemical, mechanical, microstructural, and functional characteristics. The results show that the incorporation of FexOy-NPs into the different films significantly enhanced their physicochemical, mechanical, and morphological properties as well as their antioxidant characteristics. Consequently, it was possible to produce suitable natural polymer-based films with potential applications across a wide range of industries, including functional packaging for food, antioxidants, and antimicrobial additives for pharmaceutical and biomedical materials as well as pesticides for agriculture.

Abstract
Currently, gelatin-based films are regarded as promising alternatives to non-environmentally friendly plastic films for food packaging. Nevertheless, although they have great biodegradability, their weak mechanical properties and high solubility limit their applications. In this way, the use of nanoparticles, such as FexOy-NPs, could improve the properties of gelatin-based biofilms. Thus, the main objective of this work was to include different concentrations of FexOy-NPs (0.25 and 1.0%) manufactured by green synthesis (GS) and chemical synthesis (CS) into gelatin-based biofilms in order to improve their properties. The results show that FexOy-NPs can be distributed throughout the biofilm, although with a greater concentration on the upper surface. In addition, the incorporation of FexOy-NPs into the biofilms improves their physicochemical, mechanical, morphological, and biological properties. Thus, it is possible to achieve suitable gelatin-based biofilms, which can be used in several applications, such as functional packaging in the food industry, antioxidant and antimicrobial additives in biomedical and pharmaceutical biomaterials, and in agricultural pesticides.

Abstract
Bacterial cellulose (BC) is an important polysaccharide synthesized by some bacterial species under specific culture conditions, which presents several remarkable features such as microporosity, high water holding capacity, good mechanical properties and good biocompatibility, making it a potential biomaterial for medical applications. Since its discovery, BC has been used for wound dressing, drug delivery, artificial blood vessels, bone tissue engineering, and so forth. Additionally, BC can be simply manipulated to form its derivatives or composites with enhanced physicochemical and functional properties. Several polymers, carbon-based nanomaterials, and metal nanoparticles (NPs) have been introduced into BC by ex situ and in situ methods to design hybrid materials with enhanced functional properties. This review provides comprehensive knowledge and highlights recent advances in BC production strategies, its structural features, various in situ and ex situ modification techniques, and its potential for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Consumer awareness of the relationship between health and nutrition has caused a substantial increase in the demand for nutraceuticals and functional foods containing bioactive compounds (BACs) with potential health benefits. However, the direct incorporation of many BACs into commercial food and beverage products is challenging because of their poor matrix compatibility, chemical instability, low bioavailability, or adverse impact on food quality. Advanced encapsulation technologies are therefore being employed to overcome these problems. In this article, we focus on the utilization of plant and animal derived proteins to fabricate micro and nano-particles that can be used for the oral delivery of BACs such as omega-3 oils, vitamins and nutraceuticals. This review comprehensively discusses different methods being implemented for fabrications of protein-based delivery vehicles, types of proteins used, and their compatibility for the purpose. Finally, some of the challenges and limitations of different protein matrices for encapsulation of BACs are deliberated upon. Various approaches have been developed for the fabrication of protein-based microparticles and nanoparticles, including injection-gelation, controlled denaturation, and antisolvent precipitation methods. These methods can be used to construct particle-based delivery systems with different compositions, sizes, surface hydrophobicity, and electrical characteristics, thereby enabling them to be used in a wide range of applications.

Abstract
Natural polymeric nanofibers-based materials for medical application is an intensive research area due to the unique features of natural polymeric nanofibers. Bacterial nanocellulose (BC) films containing various concentrations of mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana) peel extract were prepared and evaluated as a multifunctional nanofiber film. The extract was absorbed into BC hydrogel and air dried to entrap the extract into nanofiber network. The resulting films contained about 3, 35, and 294 mg of total phenolic compounds and 2, 24, and 250 mg of α-mangostin per cm3 of the dried films. The film containing the highest phenolic compounds and α-mangostin performed the inhibitory effect to Staphylococcus epidermidis, Propionibacterium acnes, and Staphylococcus aureus. High anticancer activity against B16F10 melanoma and MCF-7 breast cancer cells having viabilities of 10 and 5%, respectively after 48 h were detected after the treatments with the film. However, the film had a low toxicity against normal fibroblast and keratinocyte cells with 41 and 99% viability, respectively. The research suggested that the prepared films were a multifunctional nanofiber films with antimicrobial and anticancer properties.

Abstract
Site-Specific release of active molecules with antimicrobial activity spurred the interest in the development of innovative polymeric nanocarriers. In the preparation of polymeric devices, nanotechnologies usually overcome the inconvenience frequently related to other synthetic strategies. High performing nanocarriers were synthesized using a wide range of starting polymer structures, with tailored features and great chemical versatility. Over the last decade, many antimicrobial substances originating from plants, herbs, and agro-food waste by-products were deeply investigated, significantly catching the interest of the scientific community. In this review, the most innovative strategies to synthesize nanodevices able to release antimicrobial natural extracts were discussed. In this regard, the properties and structure of the starting polymers, either synthetic or natural, as well as the antimicrobial activity of the biomolecules were deeply investigated, outlining the right combination able to inhibit pathogens in specific biological compartments.

Abstract
Sodium alginate-bacterial cellulose (SA-BC) is a nanocomposite hydrogel with multi-layered porous surfaces fabricated using an in-situ biosynthesis modification method. The enzymatic hydrolysate (EH) of glycerol-pretreated Moso bamboo (MBEH) was the carbon source for glucose substitution to generate SA-bamboo-BC. SA, a natural biological polysaccharide, was combined with BC at dosages of 0.25%, 0.5%, 0.75% and 1% through hydrogen bonding. Compared to the native BC, the addition of 0.75% SA, termed as SA-bamboo-BC-0.75, enhanced the thermal properties. The dynamic swelling/de-swelling were pH-dependent, with an increased swelling ratio (SR) of 613% observed at pH 7.4 but a lower SR of 366% observed at pH 1.2. These differences were attributable to the electrostatic repulsion of -COO-. Two protein-based model drugs were compared to estimate their drug-release properties. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) was adsorbed on lignin from MBEH through hydrophobic interactions, resulting in poor drug release. Lysozyme (LYZ) exhibited a higher drug release rate (92.79%) over 60 h at pH 7.4 due to the static attraction between LYZ and -COO- of SA-bamboo-BC-0.75. As such, SA-bamboo-BC nanocomposite hydrogel was shown to possess sufficient swelling, drug-release and biocompatibility for substrate use.

Abstract
In this study we report the preparation of novel multicomponent hydrogels as potential biomaterials for injectable hydrogels comprised of alginate, casein and bacterial cellulose impregnated with iron nanoparticles (BCF). These hydrogels demonstrated amide cross-linking of alginate-casein, ionic cross-linking of alginate and supramolecular interaction due to incorporation of BCF. Incorporation of BCF into the hydrogels based on natural biopolymers was done to reinforce the hydrogels and impart magnetic properties critical for targeted drug delivery. This study aimed to improve overall properties of alginate/casein hydrogels by varying the BCF loading. The physico-chemical properties of gels were characterized via FTIR, XRD, DSC, TGA, VSM and mechanical compression. In addition, swelling, drug release, antibacterial activity and cytotoxicity studies were also conducted on these hydrogels. The results indicated that incorporation of BCF in alginate/casein hydrogels led to mechanically stronger gels with magnetic properties, increased porosity and hence increased swelling. A porous structure, which is essential for migration of cells and biomolecule transportation, was confirmed from microscopic analysis. The porous internal structure promoted cell viability, which was confirmed through MTT assay of fibroblasts. Moreover, a hydrogel can be useful for the delivery of essential drugs or biomolecules in a sustained manner for longer durations. These hydrogels are porous, cell viable and possess mechanical properties that match closely to the native tissue. Collectively, these hybrid alginate-casein hydrogels laden with BCF can be fabricated by a facile approach for potential wound healing applications.

Abstract
The porous carbon (bacterial cellulose (BC)-activated carbon (AC)(BA)) prepared via two-step activation of bacterial nanocellulose by treatments with potassium hydroxide (KOH) and then phosphoric acid (H3PO4) solutions showed superior adsorption properties and effective performance as catalyst support. BC-AC(BA) had an open and interconnected multi-porous structure, consisting of micropores (0.23 cm3/g), mesopores (0.26 cm3/g), and macropores (4.40 cm3/g). The BET surface area and porosity were 833 m2/g and 91.2%, respectively. The methylene blue adsorption test demonstrated that BC-AC(BA) was superior in its mass transfer rate and adsorption capacities. Moreover, BC-AC(BA) modified by H3PO4 treatment showed a significant enhancement of catalytic performance for dehydration of ethanol. At the reaction temperature of 250-400 °C, 30P/BC-AC(BA) gave ethanol conversion at 88.4-100%, with ethylene selectivity of 82.6-100%, whereas, high selectivity for diethyl ether (DEE) at 75.2%, at ethanol conversion of 60.1%, was obtained at the reaction temperature of 200 °C.

Abstract
The gelatin film has great potential in biomedical applications, especially in wound healing. The combination of gelatin films and stem cells could further accelerate the skin regeneration. Although polysaccharide modification can improve the mechanical property and biological activity of gelatin films, information about the stability and cellular affinity is still limited. This study investigated the influence of polysaccharides on the stability and cellular affinity of gelatin films. Two kinds of gelatin-polysaccharide composite films, including gelatin-hyaluronic acid (G-HA) and gelatin-chitosan (G-CS), were prepared in this study. It was found that G-HA composite film had better short-term and long-term stability compared with G-CS composite film. And G-HA composite film also had better biological safety than G-CS film. Moreover, the surface of G-HA composite film supported the adhesion and growth of human umbilical cord Wharton's jelly-derived mesenchymal stem cells (WJ MSCs) better than G-CS film surface. These data illustrated that G-HA composite film has better stability and cellular affinity compared with G-CS film, which could be considered a promising delivery system of stem cells for further in vivo studies. Therefore, this work would be very helpful to optimize the preparation of gelatin-polysaccharide composite films.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2020; 384:121161. [PMID: 31629599 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2019.121161] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2019] [Revised: 09/03/2019] [Accepted: 09/04/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Mesoporous ZSM-5 (MFI) zeolite was synthesized by using bacterial cellulose-derived activated carbon (BC-AC500) with a high surface area as a hard template. Different ratios of BC-AC500 and zeolite precursor gel were prepared in a Teflon-lined autoclave and crystallized at 180 °C for 48 h in a rotating oven. The physicochemical properties of the samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning/transmission electron microscopies (SEM/TEM), and N2 physisorption techniques. It was found that the mesoporous ZSM-5 zeolites have a specific surface area of 184-190 m2/g, a high mesopore volume of 0.120-0.956 ml/g and a wide pore size distribution ranging from 5 to 100 nm with a maximum at approximately 25.3 nm. The successfully made mesoporous ZSM-5 was tested as an adsorbent for formaldehyde adsorption in batch mode. The mesoporous ZSM-5 zeolite made from bacterial cellulose-derived activated carbon showed significantly faster adsorption kinetics than conventional ZSM-5 (0.0081 vs. 0.0007 g/mg min, respectively). The prepared material has an adsorption capacity of 98 mg/g and is highly reusable. The reported mesoporous ZSM-5 zeolites can be deployed for the rapid removal of toxic organics from wastewater when urgently needed, e.g., under breakthrough conditions.

Abstract
Here an injectable antibacterial aerogel was fabricated with oxidized cellulose nanofiber and chitosan for rapid hemostasis of noncompressible hemorrhage application. Especially, cellulose nanofiber was modified with carboxyl groups by pre-oxidizing in 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl combined with high pressure homogenization. Whereafter, the realized carboxyl group of cellulose nanofiber was reacted with the amidogen of chitosan to yield a strong composite aerogel with a nanofiber/nanosheet interlaced structure, which increased the compressive mechanical strength up to 75.4 kPa. In addition, the nanocellulose/chitosan composite aerogel exhibits high water absorption capacity, rapid shape recovery and good antibacterial ability (via Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus). Once absorbing water, the nanocellulose5/chitosan5 compressed aerogel could rapidly recover its shape within 30 s. The in vitro coagulation ability measurement showed that the composite aerogel has a good adhesion and aggregation effect to red blood cells and platelets. Hemolysis and cytotoxicity analysis results indicated a good biocompatibility for the composite aerogel.

Abstract
Films of bacterial cellulose (BC) reinforced by natural rubber (NR) with remarkably high mechanical strength were developed by combining the prominent mechanical properties of multilayer BC nanofibrous structural networks and the high elastic hydrocarbon polymer of NR. BC pellicle was immersed in a diluted NR latex (NRL) suspension in the presence of ethanol aqueous solution. Effects of NRL concentrations (0.5%–10% dry rubber content, DRC) and immersion temperatures (30–70 °C) on the film characteristics were studied. It was revealed that the combination of nanocellulose fibrous networks and NR polymer provided a synergistic effect on the mechanical properties of NR–BC films. In comparison with BC films, the tensile strength and elongation at break of the NR–BC films were considerably improved ~4-fold. The NR–BC films also exhibited improved water resistance over that of BC films and possessed a high resistance to non-polar solvents such as toluene. NR–BC films were biodegradable and could be degraded completely within 5–6 weeks in soil.

Abstract
Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) adsorption on model films composed of gelatin and nanofibrillated celluloses (NFCs) with different aldehyde and carboxyl contents was studied by means of the quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) technique in this study. The results showed that frequency shift (Δ f) due to PBS adsorption increased with increasing gelatin content to 50% in NFC-containing films. The dissipation shift and adsorption rate of PBS followed the same trend. Model films with NFC-1 having 1.22 mmol/g aldehyde and 0.6 mmol/g carboxyl groups adsorbed more PBS than those consisting of NFC-2 with 0.25 mmol/g aldehyde and 1.15 mmol/g carboxyl groups except for film composed of 50% gelatin. However, adsorption rate of PBS was found to be slower for NFC-1 containing film because the acetal and amidol bonds formed by functional groups in the network of cellulose and gelatin needed more time to let PBS migrate into the films.

Abstract
Fish gelatin (FG)/glycerol (GE)/halloysite (HT) composite films were prepared by casting method. The morphology of the composite films was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The effects of HT and GE addition on the mechanical properties, water resistance and optical properties of the composites were investigated. Results showed that with increasing GE content, the elongation at composite breaks increased significantly, but their tensile strength (TS) and water resistance decreased. SEM results showed that GE can partly promote HT dispersion in composites. TS and water resistance also increased with the addition of HTs. Well-dispersed HTs in the FG matrix decreased the moisture uptake and water solubility of the composites. All films showed a transparency higher than 80% across the visible light region (400⁻800 nm), thereby indicating that light transmittance of the resulting nanocomposites was slightly affected by GE and HTs.

Abstract
Uniform dispersion of two-dimensional (2D) graphene materials in polymer matrices remains challenging. In this work, a novel layer-by-layer assembly strategy was developed to prepare a sophisticated nanostructure with highly dispersed 2D graphene oxide in a three-dimensional matrix consisting of one-dimensional bacterial cellulose (BC) nanofibers. This method is a breakthrough, with respect to the conventional static culture method for BC that involves multiple in situ layer-by-layer assembly steps at the interface between previously grown BC and the culture medium. In the as-prepared BC/GO nanocomposites, the GO nanosheets are mechanically bundled and chemically bonded with BC nanofibers via hydrogen bonding, forming an intriguing nanostructure. The sophisticated nanostructure of the BC/GO leads to greatly enhanced mechanical properties compared to those of bare BC. This strategy is versatile, facile, scalable, and can be promising for the development of high-performance BC-based nanocomposite hydrogels.

Abstract
In this work, the ethylcellulose/gelatin blends at various weight ratios in water/ethanol/acetic acid solution were electrospun to fabricate nanofibers with tunable physical properties. The solution compatibility was predicted based on Hansen solubility parameters and evaluated by rheological measurements. The physical properties were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, porosity, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and water contact angle. Results showed that the entangled structures among ethylcellulose and gelatin chains through hydrogen bonds gave rise to a fine morphology of the composite fibers with improved thermal stability. The fibers with higher gelatin ratio (75%), possessed hydrophilic surface (water contact angle of 53.5°), and adequate water uptake ability (1234.14%), while the fibers with higher ethylcellulose proportion (75%) tended to be highly water stable with a hydrophobic surface (water contact angle of 129.7°). This work suggested that the composite ethylcellulose/gelatin nanofibers with tunable physical properties have potentials as materials for bioactive encapsulation, food packaging, and filtration applications.

Abstract
Freeze-drying and thermal cross-linking techniques were used to prepare gelatin-bacterial cellulose (GB) composite sponges for potential application as scaffolds in tissue engineering. To avoid the use of toxic and costly cross-linking agents, glucose was used to cross-link the gelatin via the Maillard reaction. The effects of the weight ratio of gelatin to bacterial cellulose (BC) and the cross-linking conditions (temperature and duration) on the GB sponges were examined. An open and highly interconnected porous structure was attained for the GB sponge with a gelatin:BC weight ratio of 25:75 that was cross-linked at 140°C for 3h. Its high porosity, good swelling properties, good structural stability in water, non-toxicity and good biocompatibility against Vero cell are promising for its application as a scaffold for tissue engineering.
