the aim of this study was to investigate the barrier properties of cellulose nanocrystals-pvananocomposites. nanocomposite films with different filler loading levels (3, 6, 9 and 12% by wt) weredeveloped by solvent casting method. the effect of cellulose nanocrystals on the barrier properties ofthe nanocomposites was studied. to this end, moisture absorption, water vapor permeability (wvp),oxyg...

The o-nitrophenylsulfenyl group, and amino protecting group in the chemical synthesis of peptidyl-tRNA was used to attach newly synthesized peptidyl-tRNA to a benzoylated DEAE-cellulose column. This facilitated the isolation of a highly purified specific tRNA with a well defined peptide chain.

the effect of different carbon sources on bacterial cellulose production by gluconacetobacter xylinus (ptcc 1734) and two newly isolated strains (from vinegar) under static culture conditions was studied. the production of bacterial cellulose was examined in modified hestrin-shramm medium by replacing d-glucose with other carbon sources. the results showed that the yield and characteristics of ...

polyanionic cellulose polymer is used as an additive in drilling mud in order to decrease water loss and mudcake- thickness. in this study effect of bulk and nanosize polyanionic cellulose on water loss and mud-cakethickness in mud drilling is investigated. polyanionic cellulose nanoparticles are made by using of ball milling. size of nanoparticles is measured by particle size analyzer. polyani...

cellulolytic complex are enzymes capable of hydrolyzing cellulose. due to rapid growth in population and industrialization, most countries are required to produce more fuel. production of bioethanol from lignocellulosic biomass is very challenging due to environmental pollution by fossil fuels. cellulases play a significant role in biotechnological processes. the cost of production of cellulase...

BACKGROUND The bioconversion of cellulose into simple sugars or chemicals has attracted extensive attention in recent decades. The crystal allomorphs of cellulose are key factor affecting cellulose saccharification. However, due to the influence of lignin, hemicelluloses, and different characterization methods in the literature, the effect of cellulose allomorphs on cellulose saccharification i...

The reaction of nano-cellulose and antimony pentachloridein dichloromethane gave nano-cellulose-SbCl5. Also nano-cellulose-SbCl5 has beencharacterized by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM)and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR).Nano-cellulose-SbCl5has been applied as a nano-catalyst for synthesis of pyrano[2,3-d]pyrimidines from the simple on...

-l, Carbon-14 labeled cellulose was fed to rock ptarmigan to provide evidence of cellulose digestion and metabolism. Digestibility of cellulose and energy metabolized by ptarmigan fed a diet of 6 and 30';0 cellulose were determined by a feeding trial. 2. Recovery of t'~CO2 in expired gases from ptarmigan fed t*C labeled cellulose demonstrates the digestion and metabolism of cellulose by gut mic...
