Nanostructured cellulose materials: adsorption of antibiotics onto cellulose fibers functionalized with glycidylmethacrylate for the manufacturing of antibacterial fabrics

Vismara E., Torri G., Valerio A., Graziani G., Montanelli A., Melone L., Politecnico di Milano, IT

Abstract: In this work we report how cotton fibers can be easily functionalized with glycidylmethacrylate (GMA) by means of the Fenton’s reaction and used for the manufacturing of biomedical textiles having significant capability to adsorb [...]

New nanostructured cellulose materials

Vismara E., Gastaldi G., Melone L., Cosentino C., Torri G., Politecnico di Milano, IT

Optimized synthesis of new cellulose-GMA materials via radical and physical chemical activation, their chemical composition determination and derivatization quantification. Structural solid state NMR and IR ATR characterizations. Derivative screenings for possible use in filtration of [...]

Low molecular weight heparin-vectorized _-cyclodextrin nanostructures

Vismara E., Pizzolato D., Bertini S., Torri G., Valerio A., Politecnico, IT

We set up different synthetic approaches to afford new different nanostructures cyclodextrin – low molecular weigh heparin (LMWH) characterized by covalent bonds (amine or amide) between -cyclodextrin and LMWH in different positions of the heparin [...]
