Extraction of nanocellulose and in-situ casting of ZnO/cellulose nanocomposite with enhanced photocatalytic and antibacterial activity

Cellulose Nanomaterials in Biomedical, Food, and Nutraceutical Applications: A Review

“…[13] In situ casting of ZnO/nanocellulose extracted from oil palm empty fruit bunches biomass also registered high antibacterial activity against S. aureus and E. coli. [14] Cellulose acetate butyrate/poly (ethylene) glycol/benzyl trimethyl ammonium chloride moidifed montmorillonite based packing materials were developed by Saha et al [15] to investigate their antimicrobial activity. The antimicrobial and toxicity assay revealed that the nanocomposites were antimicrobial active and non-toxic to the human blood up to 20 mg mL À1 .…”

“…Modified cellulose fiber with core‐shell antimicrobial latexes based on hydrophobic acrylate monomers and antimicrobial macromonomer were prepared via a seeded semi‐continuous emulsion copolymerization for pathogen deactivation and these latex exhibited high antimicrobial activity against E. Coli . In situ casting of ZnO/nanocellulose extracted from oil palm empty fruit bunches biomass also registered high antibacterial activity against S. aureus and E. coli . Cellulose acetate butyrate/poly (ethylene) glycol/benzyl trimethyl ammonium chloride moidifed montmorillonite based packing materials were developed by Saha et al to investigate their antimicrobial activity.…”

Hierarchical growth of nickel oxyhydroxide on bacterial cellulose hydrogel: role of water channels in hydrogel to form hierarchical structure

“…However, certain limitations such as photosensitivity, comparatively high cost, and high reactivity at the nanoscale hampered their utilization. Nickel oxide and hydroxide on the other hand have shown low‐cost and well‐defined high redox characteristics for various applications including energy and environment . Nickel oxide and hydroxide are frequently used in integrating a new type of sensors, pseudo capacitor, and hole transport layer in the optoelectronic device and water purification .…”

“…Nickel oxide and hydroxide on the other hand have shown low-cost and well-defined high redox characteristics for various applications including energy and environment. [17][18][19][20] Nickel oxide and hydroxide are frequently used in integrating a new type of sensors, pseudo capacitor, and hole transport layer in the optoelectronic device and water purification. [21][22][23][24] Several methods have been introduced to coat the nickel hydroxide, oxyhydroxide, and oxide on BC.…”
