This review reports recent advances in the application of bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) in biomedical fields. BNC has attracted both academic and industrial attention as it shows interesting properties for both biomedical and cosmetic applications. Herein, the structure, properties and selected applications of BNC in the preparation of wound dressings and artificial skin are discussed in general, and detailed examples are also drawn from the scientific literature. In this review the most common applications are presented in detail together with issues related to regenerative medicine and biomedicine, skin tissue engineering, auricular cartilage reconstruction, bone regeneration and the treatment of traumatic tympanic membrane perforation. © 2019 Society of Chemical Industry

Developing a biodegradable polymer composite by using chitosan as matrix and natural fiber as reinforcement plays a vital role in order to increase mechanical properties. Chitosan has been exploited for its mucoadhesvie property which has tremendous biomedical applications in order to explore the mechanical and thermal capability. This study initialized with manufacturing of chitosan-based composite with three different natural fibers namely banana, coir, and sisal. The results of the incorporation of natural fibers with chitosan on the strength of composite blends were investigated. Further the prepared sample undergone Thermo gravimetric analysis and peel test to evaluate their thermal stability and adhesive property. The results indicate that the chitosan improves the thermal property of composites, whereas the increasing percentage of chitosan in peel test sample gets saturated hence the adhesive property gets deteriorate.
