Bacterial Cellulose-Based Composite Scaffolds for Biomedical Applications: A Review
Abstract
Abstract Bacterial cellulose (BC), with non-toxicity, high purity, and biocompatibility, has been considered as a versatile candidate for various biomedical applications. Recently, the fabrication of BC-based composite scaffolds compounded with other ingredients such as nanoparticles and polymers has received extensive investigation, which enabled the development of numerous promising biomedical products. Additionally, BC-derived nanocrystals (BCNCs) and nanofibrils (BCNFs) have proven to be promising reinforcing agents in a variety of polymeric scaffolds for biomedical applications. In this review, we summarize recent preparation strategies for BC-based and BCNCs- and BCNFs-containing composite scaffolds and their advances in biomedical applications, including wound healing, tissue engineering, and drug delivery, as well as tumor cell culture and cancer treatment. Finally, we present challenges and future perspectives for BC-based composite scaffolds for biomedical applications.

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.
