Novel biomedical materials provide a new horizon for the diagnosis/treatment of diseases
and tissue repair. Cellulose, mainly found in trees and other biomass, is one of the most …

Cellulose is the most abundant polysaccharide on Earth. It can be obtained from a vast
number of sources, eg cell walls of wood and plants, some species of bacteria, and algae …

Nanocellulose, a biopolymer, has received wide attention from researchers owing to its
superior physicochemical properties, such as high mechanical strength, low density …

Nanocellulose is cellulose in the form of nanostructures, ie, features not exceeding 100 nm
at least in one dimension. These nanostructures include nanofibrils, found in bacterial …

Recently, biomimetic wound dressings were introduced as potential replacements for
treating skin injuries. Although there are some clinically available skin replacements, the …

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 …

Several synthetic and natural materials are used in soft tissue engineering and regenerative
medicine with varying degrees of success. Among them, silkworm silk protein fibroin, a …

Hydrogels are polymeric materials that possess a set of characteristics meeting various
requirements of an ideal wound dressing, making them promising for wound care. These …

Hydrogel can provide a favorable moisture environment for skin wound healing. In this
study, a novel in-situ crosslinked injectable hydrogel was prepared using the water-soluble …

Bacterial cellulose (BC) produced by aerobic bacteria has the advantages of high purity,
high porosity, strong water absorption, high water holding capacity, high mechanical …
