Cellulose effect

Work in several laboratories (22, 27, 55, 56) has shown a pattern of cellulase action in cellulolytic organisms which requires at least one of a set of three closely related enzymes in order to hydrolyze crystalline cellulose effectively. These enzymes often possess little ability to degrade either CM-cellulose (as measured viscosimetrically) or crystalline cellulose. Nevertheless they are characterized by the capacity to cleave swollen cellulose or cellooligosaccharides almost entirely to cellobiose by virtue of their / -( - 4)glucan cellobiohydrolase activity. Recognition of this pattern has been difficult because prior to this report the three enzymes had not been purified and characterized apart from contaminating enzyme activity.

Emulsification is the most important act of the washing process. To prevent secondary soil deposition, formation of a coalescence-stable low-concentration emulsion is needed. As it is shown above (see section 6.4), the formation of such an emulsion is possible under real conditions considering the surfactant concentration in the washing solution and hydrodynamic conditions of the soil deposition process. As far as solid soils are concerned, the process of dispersion of particles is important here. To prevent their re-deposition on the surface washed, water-soluble polymers are used, e.g. carboxymethyl cellulose. Effective dispersion agents are also inorganic salts, e.g. alkali metal silicates.

Microbial cellulose is found to be an optimal material for skin tissue repair due to its ability to provide a moist environment for wound healing and pain free dress changing. Unfortrmately, microbial cellulose itself has no antimicrobial activity to prevent wound infection. However the lack of antimicrobial activity of microbial cellulose is the main issue to be tackled. To improve the antimicrobial activity of microbial cellulose, researchers have introduced different materials such as benzalkonium chloride, chitosan and metallic nanoparticles into microbial cellulose. Among them metallic nanoparticles such as copper, silver [56] and ZnO [57] have been recently reported as excellent antimicrobial agents. Due to the electron-rich oxygen atoms in the microbial cellulose macromolecules and the large surface area of nanoporous microbial cellulose effective as nanoreactor, the in-situ metallization technique was successfully applied to the synthesis of Ag and microbial cellulose nanocomposite, which could in turn serve as antimicrobial skin tissue repair material. 

After the acetylation of cellulose, effective recycling of the solvent ILs is absolutely required. For example, at the end of the acetylation comhusk cellulose in the presence of the IL AmimCl, the comhusk cellulose acetates (CCA) product was precipitated with a large excess of water. The polymer was filtered off, and the residual IL in the filtrate was recovered by a simple evaporation, giving dean AmimCl. The purity of the recovered AmimCl was above 99%, confirmed by IH NMR sp>ectroscopy [Cao et al., 2007).
