To create Celium, Polybion feeds the bacteria a steady diet of agro-industrial fruit waste. It converts the sugar contents ...

Three-dimensional (3D) printing has a significant role in membrane production for water purification and bio-separation, with capacity to create new and cleverly designed structures. The researchers ...

We may soon be finishing off a box of cereal and then eating the bag it came in. Researchers have turned to bacteria-produced cellulose to create a composite packaging material to replace plastic. The ...

Researchers experimented with different combinations of zwitterionic molecules to produce a solvent that is liquid below 100°C and very effective at breaking down cellulose. This research may lead to ...

Using cellulose nanofibers from wood, researchers have made paper that can be tuned using a slow heat treatment to be effective semiconductors, some almost as conductive as metals (ACS Nano 2022, DOI: ...

Last week two women scientists explained how plants build the cellulose membranes that form cell walls, a process of vital interest to textile technologists. Unable to see how plants manufacture their ...
