Global concerns over environmental issues have led to a tremendous growth in sustainable
materials emerging from biobased plastics and their composites (biocomposites). This class …

Using environmentally friendly biomaterials in different aspects of human life has been
considered extensively. In this respect, different biomaterials have been identified and …

Personalized wound dressings provide enhanced healing for different wound types;
however multicomponent wound dressings with discretely controllable delivery of different …

Film-forming biopolymers possessing antimicrobial activity and biodegradability are of great
interest on account of their potential use in food packaging applications. The present study …

In this review we describe recent advances of biocomposites consisting of cellulose, chitin,
and chitosan. These polysaccharides are very important because they are abundant and …

This study investigates the creation and analysis of chitosan-zinc oxide (CS-ZnO)
nanocomposites, exploring their effectiveness in inhibiting bacteria. Two synthesis …

Cellulose and chitosan have been studied for wound dressing due to their biocompatibility,
biodegradability, lower antigenicity, and renewability. The functional and structural …

At present, there is a lack of green protocols to hydrolyze chitin into its monomer using a
chemical approach. In this study, we establish acidified lithium halide molten salt hydrate …

Antimicrobial food-packaging films can improve the safety of food and prolong shelf life. In
the present work, we first prepared the pullulan derivative and then added chitosan to form a …

Recycling agricultural and aquacultural by-products into high-value engineering aerogels is
a sustainable solution to minimize the negative impacts of these wastes on the environment …
