Wood-Derived Hydrogels as a Platform for Drug-Release Systems

Mario Culebras et al.

Summary: Wood-based hydrogels containing cellulose and lignin were successfully developed as drug-release platforms. The viscoelastic and cross-linking properties of precursor solutions were adjusted to create highly porous hydrogel structures through freeze-drying. Variations in the lignin molecular structure significantly influenced the swelling and mechanical performance of the hydrogels, with organosolv-type lignin demonstrating optimal properties for drug release systems.

Facile Tailoring of Structures for Controlled Release of Paracetamol from Sustainable Lignin Derived Platforms

Mario Culebras et al.

Summary: The study successfully synthesized hydrogels using lignin, a non-valorized biopolymer, crosslinked with PEGDGE. The ratio of crosslinker used influenced the structural and chemical properties of the resulting hydrogels, with increased crosslinker amount leading to smaller pore size and higher swelling capacity. Paracetamol release test showed higher drug diffusion for hydrogels produced with a lignin:PEGDGE ratio of 1:1.

Sustainable mesoporous carbon nanostructures derived from lignin for early detection of glucose

Anne Beaucamp et al.

Summary: A third-generation glucose biosensor has been developed using mesoporous carbon nanostructures with glucose oxidase immobilization, allowing for strong and selective activity towards glucose. The biosensor demonstrates high sensitivity and a linear response in glucose detection, with a significantly low limit of detection.
