description With the high demand of using nanotechnology, nanocellulose has become popular for different biomedical and anticancer applications. Cellulose, a nature gifted material and the most abundant organic polymer on earth, is systematically reviewed. Details of the mechanical and chemical structure of nanocellulose are explained, starting with preparation methods along with physiochemical properties and pH gradient to incorporate innovative polymeric drug delivery vehicles in anticancer applications. A myriad of research fields has introduced nanocellulose as an intriguing candidate for anticancer drug excipient and carrier in modern cancer therapy. Albeit, innovative nanocellulose-based drug carrier systems will be complicated for their commercial use in pharmacies. Of this, it is required to understand the preparation, properties, and potential drug conjugation of nanocellulose to improve its interactions with human tissues.
