Bone is a dynamic self-healing organ and a continuous remodeling ensures the restoration
of the bone structure and function over time. However, bone remodeling is not able to repair …

In this review, we highlight the importance of nanostructure of cellulose-based biomaterials
to allow cellular adhesion, the contribution of nanostructure to macroscale mechanical …

This review describes recent advances on the application of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs)
in selected applications. CNCs are produced via acid hydrolysis of cellulosic materials, such …

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 …

Bone tissue is the structural component of the body, which allows locomotion, protects vital
internal organs, and provides the maintenance of mineral homeostasis. Several bone …

Collagen, gelatin, silk fibroin, hyaluronic acid, chitosan, alginate, and cellulose are
biocompatible and non-cytotoxic, being attractive natural polymers for medical devices for …

Natural biomaterials are extensively used in tissue engineering due to their microstructure
interconnectivity and inherent bioactivity which mimics of natural extracellular matrix (ECM) …

A major challenge exists in the preparation of scaffolds for bone regeneration, namely,
achieving simultaneously bioactivity, biocompatibility, mechanical performance and simple …

Despite the advantages of bacterial cellulose (BC) over traditional cellulose, its low yield
and little bioactivity makes a limitation to be used in an industrial scale. This paper was …

Bone tissues can be damaged by degenerative illnesses, accidents, and trauma,
necessitating medical interventions which encourage regeneration. The first synthetic …
