Synthesis and Characterization of Antimicrobial Bacterial Cellulose Crosslinked with Branched Polyethylenimine

Synthesis and Characterization of Antimicrobial Bacterial Cellulose Crosslinked with Branched Polyethylenimine

This study examines the development of composite bacterial cellulose (BC) sheets with antimicrobial properties for potential application in face masks. Branched polyethylenimine (PEI) is employed as the antimicrobial agent, effective against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Various con...
