Abstract
Montmorillonite is a clay mineral that is historically associated with healthcare and has been used since ancient times to combat infections and diseases. In recent years, clay minerals such as montmorillonite have been applied to combine with polysaccharides to produce advanced biomaterials. This review reports on recent progress and contributions in research on bionanocomposites based on montmorillonite and polysaccharides for biomedical applications.
The emphasis was placed on aspects related to controlled drug delivery systems, wound dressings, antimicrobial activity, and bone tissue engineering. Furthermore, the physical and chemical characteristics of bionanocomposites were described on a molecular scale and their suitability for specific biomedical applications. Therefore, the present review provides valuable perspectives on how montmorillonite-polysaccharide bionanocomposites can address current challenges in biomedicine, guiding future research toward more effective and versatile therapeutic materials, especially for the biomaterials based on chitosan and cellulose.
期刊介绍:
Applied Clay Science aims to be an international journal attracting high quality scientific papers on clays and clay minerals, including research papers, reviews, and technical notes. The journal covers typical subjects of Fundamental and Applied Clay Science such as:
• Synthesis and purification
• Structural, crystallographic and mineralogical properties of clays and clay minerals
• Thermal properties of clays and clay minerals
• Physico-chemical properties including i) surface and interface properties; ii) thermodynamic properties; iii) mechanical properties
• Interaction with water, with polar and apolar molecules
• Colloidal properties and rheology
• Adsorption, Intercalation, Ionic exchange
• Genesis and deposits of clay minerals
• Geology and geochemistry of clays
• Modification of clays and clay minerals properties by thermal and physical treatments
• Modification by chemical treatments with organic and inorganic molecules(organoclays, pillared clays)
• Modification by biological microorganisms. etc...
