Recent advances in composites based on cellulose derivatives for biomedical applications
Abstract
Cellulose derivatives represent a viable alternative to pure cellulose due to their solubility in water and common organic solvents. This, coupled with their low cost, biocompatibility, and biodegradability, makes them an attractive choice for applications related to the biomedicine and bioanalysis area. Cellulose derivatives-based composites with improved properties were researched as films and membranes for osseointegration, hemodialysis and biosensors, smart textile fibers, tissue engineering scaffolds, hydrogels and nanoparticles for drug delivery. The different preparation strategies of these polymeric composites as well as the most recent available experimental results were described in this review. General aspects such as structure and properties of cellulose extracted from plants or bacterial sources, types of cellulose derivatives and their synthesis methods were also discussed. Finally, the future perspectives related to composites based on cellulose derivatives were highlighted and some conclusions regarding the reviewed applications were drawn.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
