Development of nanoparticles as tissue-specific drug delivery platforms can be considerably influenced by the complement system because of their inherent pro-inflammatory and tumorigenic consequences. The complement activation pathways, and its recognition subcomponents, can modulate clearance of the nanoparticles and subsequent inflammatory response and thus alter the intended translational ap...

Carboxymethyl cellulose [C6H7O(OH)3x(OCH2COOH)x]n is a derivative of the regenerated cellulose [C6H10O5]n with hydroxy-acetic acid (hydroxy ethanoic acid) CH2(OH)COOH or sodium monochloroacetate ClCH2COONa. The CMC backbone consist of D-glucose residues linked by -1,4-linkage. The molecular mass of one glucose unit in CMC chain is mCMC = 146.14 + 75.04x, where x  3 is the degree of substitu...

The solution casting method was utilized to synthesize nanocomposite films of chitosan (Cs)/CuO, Cs/graphene oxide (GO), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)/TiO2, CMC/GO, sodium alginate (Na-Alg)/TiO2, and Na-Alg/GO owing their various applications. influence CuO, TiO2 GO concentration on the optical properties Cs, CMC Na-Alg studied by UV-Vis Spectroscopy. absorbance increased with increasing filler...

The cellulases of Streptomyces thermodiastaticus (strain 2Sts) and thermomonospora fusca (strain 190Th) were produced with carboxymethyl-cellulose (CMC) serving as the carbon source during growth. Both cellulases act by random internal hydrolysis of the CMC chain, producing cellobiose, glucose, and intermediate length oligosaccharides. Cellobiase was not detected in culture filtrates produced u...

Four process involving alkalization process, karboksimetilasi, neutralization in the making CMC. Carboxymethylization alkazation proess Alkazation is reaction between cellulose soda solution (alkaline) to become alkaline (cellulose soluble solution). rection sodium chloro a...

This study aimed to develop an environmentally friendly silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using banana peel extract as reducing and capping agent. AgNPs obtained were characterized via Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Preservation of blocks coated with sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (Na-CMC) Na-CMC incorporated (Na-CMC + AgNPs) for 5 days also condu...

Screening of bovine rumen contents for heat-resistant and micro-aerophilic cellulose-degrading microorganisms was performed on carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) plates at 37 °C-45 °C, and many isolates were found to produce reducing sugars under a static condition. Of those isolates, R8 and R15, which efficiently produced reducing sugars from CMC at a high temperature, were further examined. Taxono...

In the current study, facile synthesis of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and sodium alginate capped silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was examined using microwave radiation and aniline as a reducing agent. The biopolymer matrix embedded nanoparticles were synthesized under various experimental conditions using different concentrations of biopolymer (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2%), volumes of reducing agent (50, 10...

Cellulosic substrates were modified by using sequential adsorption of functionalized carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and "click" chemistry in aqueous media. First, the effect of degree of substitution (DS), and level of functionalization as well as ionic strength of the medium were systematically investigated in situ by using quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) in terms of the ex...

ABSTRACT. Curcumin nanoparticles (CurNP’s) were successfully synthesized, characterized, and used as a cross-linking dopant of polyvinyl alcohol/ sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (PVA/CMC) semi-natural polymer blend. Synthesized nanocomposite films (PVA/CMC/CurNP’s) characterized using Fourier transforms infrared FTIR spectroscopy tested for their resistance different bacterial grams. Obtained da...
