Mineralization of regenerated cellulose hydrogels
Due to their high water swelling, regenerated cellulose hydrogels and sponges were pre-incubated in a Ca-containing solution, and their mineralization was investigated. Results obtained demonstrate that a simple pre-incubation treatment in a Ca containing solution can induce mineralization in materials with limited or no tendency to mineralize.

Root Compression Due to Swollen Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose after Cervical Disc Surgery
Oxidized regenerated cellulose is a hemostatic material that is frequently used in neurosurgery. While it is often left in place to avoid postoperative hematoma, in rare cases it may cause neural tissue compression.

Synergistic Adsorption of Heavy Metal Ions and Organic Pollutants by Supramolecular Polysaccharide Composite Materials from Cellulose, Chitosan and Crown Ether [PDF]
We have developed a simple one-step method to synthesize novel supramolecular polysaccharide composites from cellulose (CEL), chitosan (CS) and benzo-15-crown 5 (B15C5). Butylmethylimidazolium chloride [BMIm+Cl−], an ionic liquid (IL), was used as a sole

Expression of the C-terminal family 22 carbohydratebinding module of xylanase 10B of Clostridium themocellum in tobacco plant [PDF]
Carbohydrate-binding modules have been shown to alter plant cell wall structural architecture. Hence, they have the potential application of being used to engineer the plant to produce tailor-made natural fibers in the cell wall.
