Nanocellulose as an embedding matrix and applications thereof

Abstract

A versatile drug delivery system comprised of plant-based nanocellulose can be used for providing high loading and extended release for virtually any drug. This system is made from nanocrystalline cellulose chemically cross-linked to form a hydrogel. This versatile hydrogel-based drug delivery system can be functionalized to support extended release of oral dosing, relieving patient burden and increasing quality of life.
