Dr. Seyed Mohammad Amin Ojagh, from Prof. van de Ven's research group and his colleagues, introduced a novel class of highly functionalized nanocellulose-based materials for diverse applications, recently published in the Chemical Engineering Journal. This study involved the in-situ modification of bacterial cellulose (BC) with hairy nanocellulose (HNC), resulting in nanocomposites with enhanced physicochemical properties compared to BC alone. The nanocomposites were loaded with a natural antibacterial agent and demonstrated strong antibacterial activity against bacterial cells and biocompatibility with human cells, making them promising candidates for biomedical applications. In addition, owing to their varying pore sizes, these nanocomposites show potential as effective membranes for water filtration.
