Biocellulose Masks as Delivery Systems: A Novel Methodological Approach to Assure Quality and Safety

Abstract: Bacterial cellulose (BC) has become of great interest in recent years, as a delivery system in several areas of application, including food, drugs, and cosmetics, thanks to its exclusive advantages, such as high biocompatibility, water holding capacity, and good gas permeability. The novel approach of the authors has led to a protocol for checking the quality and safety of bacterial cellulose matrices in the manufacture of cosmetic masks. Two non-destructive techniques, near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR) and mul… Show more

“…All masks were produced following Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) guidelines and were checked for quality, microbial content, and the effectiveness of the preservative system through the Challenge test, and for all masks, a confirmation of tolerability was performed through an in vivo test (Patch Test) in order to ensure a safe and high‐quality product suitable to be applied to volunteers …”

“…Although BC and plant cellulose possess a similar chemical structure, the self‐assembling nanofibrous structure of BC is different to that of plant cellulose. Despite the many positive effects of biocellulose, it is essential to extensively check all steps of face‐mask production in order to meet the legal requirements of quality and safety specified for cosmetic products …”

Nevertheless, its industrial production and commercialization at large scale are still actually hampered by high fermentation costs, low productivity and expensive culture media.…”
