Increased reactivity of cellulose in ionic liquids was revealed when cellulose was protected with a 4-methoxytrityl moiety in the imidazolium-based ionic liquid, 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([amim]Cl). Selectively protected 2,6-di-O-(4-methoxytri

The cellulose-producing power of the VKM V-800 Acetobacter xylinum strain under conditions of static culture was studied. The culture medium was optimized with the aim to increase the cellulose yield and obtain highly crystalline cellulose I with molecula

Layer-by-layer assembled films have been exploited for functional materials. Tannic acid with previously confirmed antibacterial and antioxidant potentials was deposited on cellulose nanofibrous mats. The LbL assembly technique allowed sufficient binding of TA and AgNPs-Lys to the supporting substrate via hydrogen bond and electrostatic interactions. The properties and morphology of the AgNPs-Lys/TA multilayer assembly membranes were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT-IR), wide-angle X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The antibacterial and antioxidant activities were examined as well. The hybrid composite films have potential application in food packing and wound dressing, and tissue engineering, etc. This journal is

High and dry: The synthesis in vitro of longer-chain cellulose with more than 100 anhydrous glucopyranose units in the polymer has been performed by a new technique for glycosynthesis. This method uses enzymatic polymerization with enzyme/surfactant complexes that act in nonaqueous organic media. (Chemical Equation Presented).

For the first time, a novel fibrous polysaccharide scaffold for cell culture was fabricated by the combination of electrospinning and electrostatic layer-by-layer (LBL) self-assembly technique. Oppositely charged chitosan (CS) and alginate (ALG) in aqueous media were alternatively deposited onto the negatively charged cellulose nanofibrous mats which hydrolyzed from electrospun cellulose acetate mats. The morphology and biocompatibility of the resultant scaffolds were investigated by regulating the pH of dipping solutions, the number of deposition bilayers, and the composition of outermost layer. Field emission scanning electron microscopy images indicated that the scaffolds possessed the fibrous structure and the thickness of CS/ALG bilayer formed on fibers was estimated in the range of 8-15 nm. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results verified the existence of nitrogen element of CS on the surface of LBL films. The cell culture experiments demonstrated that the scaffolds have good biocompatibility for Beas-2B human bronchial epithelial cells in vitro.
The surface structure of well-ordered native cellulose fibrils in contact with water

, p. 97 - 100 (2010)
CP/MAS 13C NMR spectroscopy was used in combination with spectral fitting to examine the surface structure of hydrated cellulose I fibrils from Halocynthia and Gluconoacetobacter xylinus. To increase the spectral intensities and minimize signal overlap, G. xylinus celluloses site-specifically enriched in 13C either on C4 or on both C1 and C6 were examined. The experimental data showed multiple C4 and C6 signals for the water accessible fibril surfaces in the highly crystalline celluloses. These signal multiplicities were attributed to structural features in the surface layers induced by the fibril interior, and could not be extracted by spectral fitting in celluloses with a lower degree of crystallinity such as cellulose from cotton.
Regioselective synthesis of lipophilic dithiocarbamate derivatives of cellulose to prepare a novel solvent extraction reagent for selective extraction of PGM ions and Cu(II)

Regenerated cellulose from cellulose triacetate was regiose-lectively converted into its lipophilic amino and dithiocarbamate derivatives to prepare novel solvent extraction reagents with series of substitutions and deoxy substitution reaction. The 6-de-oxydithiocarbamate-2,3-didecyl cellulose prepared in this work significantly demonstrated the high lipophilicity coupled with high selectivity for PGM ions and also to the Cu(II) over Ni(II) and Zn(II) in liquid-liquid extraction.

Control of the monomer sequence in polymers is extraordinarily difficult by chemical synthesis, though Nature routinely exerts such control, including in the biosynthesis of polysaccharides. This inability has prevented us from being able to match the exquisite structure-activity control exhibited in biosynthesis of bioactive natural polysaccharides. We here address a powerful approach, whereby enzyme-catalyzed polymerization of properly modified building blocks is introduced as a simple route affording polysaccharides with controlled sequence and functionalization pattern. Targeting cellulose as a versatile scaffold for novel biomaterials, we describe the preparation of a perfectly alternating polysaccharide with repeat unit 6′-azido-6′-deoxycellobiose by a glycosynthase-catalyzed polymerization using the Humicola insolens cellulase Cel7B E197A mutant, and its further functionalization to give novel modified cellulose derivatives with a regular substitution pattern.
