“…Sulfated cellulose nanocrystals with sodium counterions (CNC, 11.46 wt% and 1.1 wt% sulfur content) were procured from The University of Maine, however, this material can be produced from any lignocellulosic source or by bacterial fermentation. [11] Tween-20 was purchased from VWR (Randor, PA, USA). BSA and ethanolamine were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (Burlington, MA, USA).…”

Enhanced and rapid surveillance for diseases is critical to public health and meeting United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal for Good Health and Well‐being by allowing for targeted and accelerated prevention and control response strategies. Human malaria, caused by Plasmodium spp. and transmitted by mosquitoes is no exception. Advances in sustainable materials provide an opportunity to improve fast, sustainable, and equitable testing assays. Here, naturally abundant polymers and biomaterials, such as cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and chitosan, were used to increase antibody density deposition on the assay detection line when compared to traditional free antibody deposition, and thus the sensitivity, of easily assembled rapid tests designed to detect Plasmodium vivax infective (sporozoite) parasites in mosquitoes, a critical indicator of malaria transmission. The immobilization of antibodies onto chitosan‐coated CNCs allowed for antigen detection with a lower number of antibodies used in each test; likewise, the immobilization allowed to directly place the CNC‐Ab without the traditionally needed blockers layer on the paper like bovine serum albumin (BSA). This bio‐based prototype of a paper‐based dipstick assay shows a promising pathway for the development of rapid disease surveillance tools using sustainable and globally available materials.

Existe un interés creciente en el uso de materiales de origen natural para generar materiales adsorbentes que puedan mejorar la calidad del agua mediante la eliminación de contaminantes de origen industrial, como los tintes. En este trabajo, se prepararon esferas compuestas a partir de nanofibrilas de celulosa (CNF) y goma de Tara (TG) mediante su codiso-lución en un medio alcalino de úrea/ hidróxido sódico seguido de corregeneración en un medio ácido. Las esferas obtenidas se caracterizaron mediante Infrarrojo con transformada de Fourier con reflectancia total atenuada (FTIR-ATR), Difracción de Rayos X (XRD), Análisis termogravimétrico (TGA), Análisis elemental (EA), y Microscopía electrónica de barrido (SEM)...
