  1. The assessment of bacterial nanocellulose functionalized with metal nanoparticles. [Excerpt] Introduction Biocompatibility is one of the mandatory requirements of indwelling medical devices to avoid foreign body reactions and consequential surgical removal.. This research was funded by FEDER funds through the Operational Competitiveness Program–COMPETE, under the project POCI-01-0247-FEDER-068924 and by National Funds through Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (FCT), under the. 2023.

  2. Antibacterial properties of bacterial nanocellulose functionalized with metal nanoparticles via in situ synthesis. [Excerpt] Wound infections are generally caused by pathogens and multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains that render the administration of antibiotics ineffective. An alternative is to treat infected wounds at the initial stage using a fibrous bionanopolymer, bacterial nanocellulose (BNC), functionalized with antimicrobial metal nanoparticles (MNPs). BNC is a highly promising wound dressing due to its v. 2023.

  3. Antiviral properties of flame retardant bacterial nanocellulose modified with mordenite. [Excerpt] Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) is a 100 % cellulose nano-nonwoven textile synthesized by bacteria, comprising impressive mechanical properties. Cellulosic materials require flame retardant finishing, thus to reduce flammability of BNC a zeolite mordenite (MOR) was incorporated in its nano structure, without any additives..

  4. Antimicrobial activity of a bacterial nanocellulose film functionalized with Nisin Z for prospective burn wounds treatment. Burn wounds can lead to numerous severe complications including bacterial infections causing patient morbidity and mortality, mostly in low- and middle-income countries. The considerable increase of the microbial resistance against traditional antibiotics is leading towards alternative strategies to treat bacterial infections. Nisin Z is an antimicrobial peptide which exhibits a significant antiba. 2022. Melro, Liliana Sofia Silva Ferreira Pinto; Tavares, Tânia Daniela Eugénio; Padrão, Jorge; Dourado, Fernando; Gama, F.

  5. Antimicrobial activity of bacterial nanocellulose modified with chestnut extract. Chestnut wood extracts are rich in tannins that exhibit numerous health-promoting properties. The incorporation of 5% (w/v) chestnut extract within the nanofibrous structure of bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) produced by Gluconacetobacter hansenii ATCC 53582 was obtained through exhaustion. This simple processing methodology resulted in a flexible (upon addition of 2% (w/v) glycerol), biodegradable,. 2022.

  6. Bacterial NanoCellulose: what future?. Acetic acid bacteria (AAB) have been used in various fermentation processes. Of several ABB, the bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) producers, notably Komagataeibacter xylinus, appears as an interesting species, in large part because of their ability in the secretion of cellulose as nano/microfibrils. In fact, BNC is characterized by a native nanofibrillar structure, which may outperform the currently. 2018. Gama, F. M.; Dourado, Fernando. http://hdl.handle.net/1822/54418.
