Fabrication of Gelatin Complexes/Bio-Nanocellulose Nanostructured Composite Mats

Article Preview

Abstract:

Fabrication of gelatin complexes/bio-nanocellulose was achieved using facile and green method to fabricate nanostructured composite mats. The bio-nanocellulose was synthesized using Acetobacter xylinum bacteria. The bio-nanocellulose pellicle was submerged in gelatin solution and thereafter complexing. Gelatin complex nanospheres were found to adsorb on and inside bio-nanocellulose mats. The nanocomposite mats exhibited optical transparency, high surface area with porous structure, antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, and non-cytotoxicity to Vero monkey kidney cells.
