A novel rapid method for high throughput production of smooth nanocellulose (NC) films by spray coating was communicated recently. In this method, we employed spray coating to produce wet films on stainless steel plates moving on a conveyor, forming free-standing films with interesting structural, mechanical and surface properties upon drying. In this research, we investigate the range of mechanical...
Spraying of nanocellulose (NC) on a solid surface to prepare films is an alternative technique to vacuum filtration, which requires a long drainage time and produces films which can sometimes be difficult to separate from the filter. This letter reports a rapid preparation technique for nano-cellulose films using a bench scale system spray coating nanocellulose suspension onto stainless steel plates...
Electrospun poly(dl-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) microfibers have been explored as extra cellular matrix mimicking scaffolding systems for tissue engineering application. However, the hydrophobic nature of PLGA can be limiting in terms of protein adsorption. Hence, blending of PLGA with a hydrophilic polymer (Pluronic ® ) prior to electrospinning has been explored as a potential strategy to...
A porous keratin scaffold, prepared from the reduced keratin solution, has shown good cell viability which makes it a potential candidate for cell seeding. An aqueous solution of reduced keratin was extracted from horn meal using a mixture of urea, sodium dodecyl sulfate, mercaptoethanol, and water at 60°C. The molecular mass of the extracted keratin is found to be ranging between 225 and 150 KDa...
