Bacterial cellulose-based nanocomposite doped with activated carbon and silver nanoparticles as filter membrane for antimicrobial activity and water purification

Silver-Bacterial Cellulose-Areca catechu Extract Nanocomposite Biofilm for Sustainable Food Packaging: Synthesis, Characterization, and Antibacterial Activity

Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a low-cost, biodegradable biopolymer with excellent mechanical strength and water-holding capacity. It is an attractive material for sustainable food packaging; however, native BC lacks intrinsic antibacterial activity. In this study, silver-bacterial cellulose-Areca catechu nanocomposite bi...

Biogenic silver/zinc oxide-carboxymethyl cellulose nanocomposites with enhanced photocatalytic and antimicrobial activities for environmental remediation

The development of a green methodology for the synthesis of silver/zinc/carboxymethyl cellulose (Ag/ZnO/CMC) nanocomposites using cinnamon extract as a reducing and stabilizing agent is reported herein. The innovation aspect of this research is the incorporation of biogenic Ag and Zn nanoparticles into the biodegradabl...
