Composite Hydrogels of Bacterial Cellulose - carboxymethyl Cellulose for Drug Release
Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a suitable material for biomedical applications due to its remarkable proprieties, such us: biodegradability, biocompatibility and ready availability. In this paper the swelling and drug release profiles from bacterial cellulosecarboxymethyl cellulose (BC-CMC) composite hydrogels were investigated, in the aim to use such systems in controlled drug delivery field. Ibu...
متن کاملBacterial cellulose membranes and spheres composite with poly (l-lactic acid) through in situ polymerization
Background Since poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) shows great biocompatibility as well as biodegradability [1] and bacterial cellulose (BC) is a high purity biomaterial with unique structural and mechanical properties, composed of cellulose and water [2,3], both are biopolymers with great potential for biomedical applications. This work had the purpose of producing biocomposites with properties that ...
متن کاملCholesterol incorporation into bacterial membranes.
The wall-covered bacteria Micrococcus lysodeikticus, Bacillus megaterium, and Proteus mirabilis incorporated exogenous cholesterol into their cytoplasmic membrane in quantities resembling those incorporated by sterol-nonrequiring mycoplasmas. Cholesterol incorporation into the outer membrane of P. mirabilis was much more restricted than into the cytoplasmic membrane.
متن کاملFreestanding bacterial cellulose-graphene oxide composite membranes with high mechanical strength for selective ion permeation
Graphene oxide (GO) based membranes have been widely applied in molecular separation based on the size exclusion effect of the nanochannels formed by stacked GO sheets. However, it's still a challenge to prepare a freestanding GO-based membrane with high mechanical strength and structural stability which is prerequisite for separation application in aqueous solution. Here, a freestanding compos...
متن کاملCellulose Acetate Nanofiltration Membranes for Cadmium Remediation
In this work, cellulose acetate (CA) nanofiltration (NF) membranes were prepared via non-solvent phase inversion technique (NIPS). Polymer concentration was varied from 22 to 25 wt% in order to study its effect on the membrane properties. The fabricated membranes were characterized in terms of morphological analysis using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), contact angle, water content, water p...
