Nanocellulose as building block for novel materials [PDF]
This thesis describes the fabrication of novel green materials using nanocellulose as the building block. Bacterial cellulose (BC) was used as the nanocellulose predominantly in this work. BC is highly crystalline pure cellulose with an inherent fibre

Bacterial Cellulose for Osmometer Membranes [PDF]
IN the investigation of the mechanism of polymerization reactions, it is essential to be able to count the number of polymer molecules produced. This implies that the number average molecular weight has to be measured. The best method is to use an osmometer, taking precautions with regard to the extrapolation of measurements to infinite dilution ...

Immobilized photosensitizers for antimicrobial applications [PDF]
Photodynamic antimicrobial chemotherapy (PACT) is a very promising alternative to conventional antibiotics for the efficient inactivation of pathogenic microorganisms; this is due to the fact that it is virtually impossible for resistant strains to ...
