Alginate (Alg) and bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) have exhibited great potential in biomedical applications, especially wound dressing. Non-toxicity and a moisture-maintaining nature are common features making them favorable for functional dressing fabrication. BNC is a natural biopolymer that promotes major advances to the current and future biomedical materials, especially in a flat or tubular membrane form with excellent mechanical strength at hydrated state. The main drawback limiting wide applications of both BNC and Alg is the lack of antibacterial activity, furthermore, the inherent poor mechanical property of Alg leads to the requirement of a secondary dressing in clinical treatment. To fabricate composite dressings with antibacterial activity and better mechanical properties, sodium alginate was efficiently incorporated into the BNC matrix using a time-saving vacuum suction method followed by cross-linking through immersion in separate solutions of six cations (manganese, cobalt, copper, zinc, silver, and cerium). The results showed the fabricated composites had not only pH-responsive antibacterial activities but also improved mechanical properties, which are capable of acting as smart dressings. All composites showed non-toxicity toward fibroblast cells. Rat model evaluation showed the skin wounds covered by the dressings healed faster than by BNC.

Surface oxidation of bacterial cellulose (BC) was done with the TEMPO-mediated oxidation mechanism system. After that, TEMPO-oxidized bacterial cellulose (TOBC) was impregnated with silver sulfadiazine (AgSD) to prepare nanocomposite membranes. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was carried out to determine the existence of aldehyde groups on BC nanofibers and X-ray diffraction (XRD) demonstrated the degree of crystallinity. FESEM analysis revealed the impregnation of AgSD nanoparticles at TOBC nanocomposites with the average diameter size ranging from 11 nm to 17.5 nm. The sample OBCS3 showed higher antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli by the disc diffusion method. The results showed AgSD content, dependent antibacterial activity against all tested bacteria, and degree of crystallinity increases with TOBC and AgSD. The main advantage of the applications of TEMPO-mediated oxidation to BC nanofibers is that the crystallinity of BC nanofibers is unchanged and increased after the oxidation. Also enhanced the reactivity of BC as it is one of the most promising method for cellulose fabrication and functionalization. We believe that the novel composite membrane could be a potential candidate for biomedical applications like wound dressing, BC scaffold, and tissue engineering.

Hemicellulose-based composite hydrogels were successfully prepared by adding polydopamine (PDA) microspheres as reinforcing agents. The effects of PDA microsphere size, dosage, and nitrogen content in hydrogel on the mechanical and rheological properties was studied. The compressive strength of hydrogel was increased from 0.11 to 0.30 MPa. The storage modulus G’ was increased from 7.9 to 22.0 KPa. The gaps in the hemicellulose network are filled with PDA microspheres. There is also chemical cross-linking between them. These gaps increased the density of the hydrogel network structure. It also has good water retention and pH sensitivity. The maximum cumulative release rate of methylene blue was 62.82%. The results showed that the release behavior of hydrogel was pH-responsive, which was beneficial to realizing targeted and controlling drug release.

A novel bacterial cellulose (BC) composite (carboxymethylated-bacterial cellulose, CM-BC) was synthesized by Acetobacter xylinum by adding water-soluble carboxymethylated cellulose (CMC) in the culture medium. FTIR results showed that CM-BC is obtained by the incorporation of CMC in the network of BC. Water-holding capacity and water vapor transmission rates (WVTR) of CM-BC and BC are determined. The WVTR of CM-BC is comparable to that of BC, but the water-holding capacity of CM-BC is improved compared with BC. Tensile strengths measurement results showed that the fracture stress of CM-BC is higher than that of BC, indicating that CM-BC have more potential wound dressing applications than BC.
