A reinvestigation of cellulose degradation by Clostridium cellulolyticum in a bioreactor with pH control of the batch culture and using a defined medium was performed. Depending on cellulose concentration, the carbon flow distribution was affected, showing the high flexibility of the metabolism. With less than 6.7 g of cellulose liter(-1), acetate, ethanol, H(2), and CO(2) were the main end pro...

Transdermal matrix type patches of terbutaline sulphate were fabricated using ethyl cellulose and cellulose acetate polymer. The highest release rate was observed from CP3 and EP2 patches. Transdermal patches CP3 and EP2 were found to be physically stable with regard to drug content, tensile strength, folding endurance, thickness, and weight variation. The drug permeation from both the patches ...

Fe3O4 nanoparticles were synthesizedviaa simple chemical reaction between FeCl2.4H2O and Fe(NO3)3.9H2O under nitrogen atmosphere at room temperature, and then nanoparticles were added to cellulose acetate (CA) polymer. The influence of nanoparticles on the thermal properties of CA polymeric matrix was studied using the...
