Nanocellulose has gained much attention because of its excellent properties. Cationic cellulose nanocrystals (cCNC) shows good adsorptivity toward negative ions and molecules. Phosphate binders are most used to treat hyperphosphatemia and it is significant to develop its alternatives with high specific and low cost in the clinic. Herein, we prepared cCNC and characterized it by FTIR, TEM, dynamic light scattering, and viscosity method. We simulated the binding process of cationic cellulose for phosphate and used it as phosphate binder for hyperphosphatemia therapy to study the phosphate binding effect and evaluate the oral toxicity. Cationic cellulose improved the conditions of mice models and efficiently decreased the level of phosphate in the serum. cCNC had a better binding effect than cationic microcrystalline cellulose both in vitro and in vivo. cCNC could be used as alternatives to phosphate binder for therapy of chronic renal failure and hyperphosphatemia.

Harnessing ionic gradients to generate electricity has inspired the development of nanofluidic membranes with charged nanochannels for osmotic energy conversion. However, achieving high-performance osmotic energy output remains elusive due to the trade-off between ion selectivity and nanochannel membrane permeability. In this study, we report a homogeneous nanofluidic membrane, composed of sulfonated nanoporous carbon (SPC) and TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibers (T-CNF), engineered to overcome these limitations.

The development of innovative, cost effective, and biocompatible sensor materials for rapid and efficient practical applications is a key area of focus in electroanalytical chemistry. In this research, we report on a novel biocompatible sensor, made using a unique polybenzoxazine-based carbon combined with amino cellulose and hyaluronic acid to produce a bio-polymer complex (PBC-ACH) (polybenzoxazine-based carbon with amino cellulose and hyaluronic acid). This sensor material is fabricated for the first time to enable the electroreduction of the herbicide, metribuzin (MTZ).

Cellulose is a homopolymer composed of β-glucose units linked by 1,4-beta linkages in a linear arrangement, providing its structure with intermolecular H-bonding networking and crystallinity. The participation of hydroxy groups in the H-bonding network results in a low-to-average nucleophilicity of cellulose, which is insufficient for executing a nucleophilic reaction. Importantly, as a polyhydroxy biopolymer, cellulose has a high proportion of hydroxy groups in secondary and primary forms, providing it with limited aqueous solubility, highly dependent on its form, size, and other materialistic properties.

Industrialization of military textiles faces many challenges and some requirements such as durability, protection and suitability for hostile environment must be provided. Herein, fluorescent protective cotton with ultraviolet radiation (UVR)-protection and antimicrobial property was currently prepared via the immobilization of lanthanide-metal organic framework (Ln-MOF). Cotton fabrics were primarily activated via cationization process with 3-Chloro-2-hydroxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride to obtain the cationized cotton (Q-cotton).
