Antibacterial Activity of Hydrogels Produced from Nanocellulose Derivatives for Controlled Drug Delivery
Abstract:Cellulose can be extracted from Sengon wood (Paraserianthes falcataria) waste, and the cellulose obtained is hydrolyzed to produce nanocellulose, which is cellulose with a smaller size. The physical and chemical properties of Sengon wood nanocellulose have been reported in previous research. 4 Nanocellulose is modified with rosin through an esterification reaction to produce nanocellulose esther. 5,6 A commodity that is common in Indonesia is rosin, which contains abietic acid. 7,8 The chemical structure of ab… Show more
