The paper “One-Step Biosynthesis of Soft Magnetic Bacterial Cellulose Spheres with Localized Nanoparticle Functionalization“, recently published in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, is the latest result of the collaboration of our group and Pavel Levkin (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology).
On September 28, Soledad Roig defended her doctoral thesis “Novel bacterial cellulose materials: structuration, functional nanocomposites and photocurable Hydrogels”.
New paper “Bio and soft-imprinting lithography on bacterial cellulose films“ has been published in the journal Materials Today Chemistry.
New paper “New Carbons derived from alcohol-treated bacterial cellulose with optimal porosity for Li–O2 batteries“ has been published in the journal Renewable Energy.
All N&N Group researchers working with bacterial cellulose attended the 4th EPNOE International Junior Scientists Meeting (3-4 February). Amanda and Sole contributed with oral presentations. Cristina presented a poster and won the Best Poster award.
The N&N researchers Sole Roig and Anna Laromained are co-authors of the publication “Enzymically attaching oligosaccharide-linked ‘cargoes’ to cellulose and other commercial polysaccharides via stable covalent bonds” recently published on the International Journal of Biological Macromolecules.
Congratulations to them and their collaborators!
Last 1st to 3rd July 2019, the PhD fellow Soledad Roig attended the 4th International Conference of Natural Fibers that took place in Porto (Portugal). There, she presented an interesting oral contribution with the title: “Multilayer bacterial cellulose with confined nanoparticle distribution” which was based on her most recent published work.
From the 8th to the 12th of October 2018 Sole Roig, PhD candidate at the N&N group, participated in the 2nd Conference in Polymer Science (POLYMAR) dedicated to biopolymers and taking place in a cruise through the Aegean sea. Her presentation “Microstructuration and functionalization of bacterial cellulose” was awarded with the Best Oral Presentation by an early stage researcher price sponsored by Publishing MDPI, congratulations Sole!
“POLYMAR2018 was a very interesting congress with a new format I have never seen before. The industrial point of view of most of the talks offered me the possibility to learn new approaches that we can apply on our lab in order to make easier the commercialization of the materials we are investigating.”
