Publication 3D Printed Functionalized Nanocellulose as an Adsorbent in Batch and Fixed-Bed Systems(MDPI, 2023) ;Mohd Shaiful Sajab ;Wan Nazihah Liyana Wan Jusoh ;Denesh Mohan ;Hatika KacoRubiyah BainiNanocellulose, a refined form of cellulose, can be further functionalized on surface-active sites, with a catalyst as a regenerative agent. Newly developed adsorbents are expected to have the characteristics of good and rapid adsorption performance and regeneration properties with flexible structure using 3D printing technology. In this work, the adsorption performance of 3D printed functionalized nanocellulose was investigated using batch and fixed-bed column adsorption. Kinetics adsorption studies were divided into different adsorption models, with the pseudo-second order model showing a better correlation coefficient than the pseudo-first order and intraparticle diffusion models. The Langmuir and Thomas models were used to calculate the adsorption performance of batch and fixed-bed columns. Given the catalytic activity of Fenton oxidation, the fixed-bed column was regenerated up to five adsorption-desorption cycles, suggesting satisfactory performance of the column, with a slightly reduced adsorption capacity. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Publication Nanocellulose-based Biomaterial Ink Hydrogel For Uptake/release Of Bovine Serum Albumin(MDPI, 2023) ;Wan Nazihah Liyana Wan Jusoh ;Denesh Mohan ;Mohd Shaiful Sajab ;Peer Mohamed Abdul ;Hatika Kaco ;Gongtao DinRubiyah BainiThis study explores the potential of using nanocellulose extracted from oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) as a biomaterial ink for 3D printing. The research focuses on using nanocellulose hydrogels for the controlled uptake and release of proteins, with the specific protein solution being Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA). To provide a suitable material for the bioprinting process, the study examines the characteristics and properties of the printed hydrogels through various analyses, such as morphology, functional group, crystallinity, and compression test. Several parameters, such as initial concentration, temperature, and the presence of calcium chloride as an additional crosslinker, affect the protein uptake and release capabilities of the hydrogel. The study is important for biomedicine as it explores the behavior of protein uptake and release using nanocellulose and 3D printing and can serve as a preliminary study for using hydrogels in biological materials or living cells.
