Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized by NaBH4 reduction and loaded in the dry-fabricated biofilm (DFBF) or the interlayer space of montmorillonite (MMT), generating AgNPs/DFBF or AgNPs/MMT composites, respectively. Use of NaBH4 at lower concentrations resulted in smaller the derived AgNPs, which exhibited superior antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and...
Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a nanoscale and useful biomaterial with a fine fiber network and high water holding capacity. However, dried BC exhibits poor rehydration ability. The present study investigated the rehydration ability of composites of hydrolyzed gelatin peptides (HGP) and hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose-modified BC (HBC). The HGP with molecular weights <9 kDa were obtained by hydrolyzing...
Many studies focus on bacterial cellulose (BC) functioning as multi-function bio-resource polymers, due to its fine fiber network, biocompatibility, high water holding capacity, and high mechanical strength. However, BC exhibits poor rehydration after drying due to its high crystallinity. This study added carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) to a BC producing culture medium, which interfered with the formation...
