Fabrication of cellulose aerogel from sugarcane bagasse as drug delivery carriers

Currently most of the aerogel-based drug delivery carriers are made from non-biodegradable materials, such as silica. In this study, highly porous cellulose aerogels with Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface areas that varied between 22 m2 g-1 and 525 m2 g-1 were prepared from a sugarcane bagasse ce...
