An investigation of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm growth on novel nanocellulose fibre dressings [PDF]
Nanocellulose from wood is a novel biomaterial, which is highly fibrillated at the nanoscale. This affords the material a number of advantages, including self-assembly, biodegradability and the ability to absorb and retain moisture, which highlights its ...

Effect of nanocellulose isolation techniques on the formation of reinforced poly(vinyl alcohol) nanocomposite films [PDF]
Three techniques including acid hydrolysis (AH), 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl radical (TEMPO)-mediated oxidation (TMO) and ultrasonication (US) were introduced to isolate nanocellulose from microcrystalline cellulose, in order to reinforce poly ...

A novel enzymatic approach to nanocrystalline cellulose preparation [PDF]
In this work, conditions for an enzymatic pretreatment prior to NCC isolation from cotton linter were assessed. Different cellulase doses and reaction times were studied within an experimental design and NCC were obtained. At optimal enzymatic conditions

Nanocellulose: Beyond the ordinary [PDF]
Nanocellulose is a collective term for nanoassemblies of macromolecular cellulose in fibrous and crystalline forms, mainly originating from woody bioresources. Fascinating physicochemical properties of nanocellulose, such as high strength, light weight, transparency, and low thermal expansion, have allowed development of nanocellulose-based functional ...

Nanocellulose is a broader term used for nano-scaled cellulosic crystal and/or fibrils of plant or animal origin. Where bacterial nanocellulose was immediately accepted in biomedicine due to its “cleaner” nature, the plant-based nanocellulose has seen ...

The self-assembly of nanocellulose in the form of cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) can be accomplished via hydrogen-bonding assistance into completely bio-based hydrogels. This study aimed to use the intrinsic properties of CNFs, such as their ability to form
