Abstract

Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a abundant natural biopolymer which due to its biocompatibility, it has a big potential to be used in biomedical material applications such as a scaffolding for skin tissue engineering. But, pristine BC still has some lacks desired properties, which limits its uses as a scaffolding or a template for growing fibroblast cell. Therefore its properties need to be boosted up to formed a better material that allow cellular penetration and several key requirement for tissue engineering. Here in this study a biocomposite was produce by loaded aloe vera extract in to medium in static culture during cellulose fiber biosynthesis using strain bacteria Acetobacter xylinum. BC/aloe biocomposite were characterized using FTIR and SEM analyses. Interaction between BC fibers and aloe vera extract was proved by peak in region 1643 cm-1 which is implied the intermolecular interaction of BC and the amino groups of aloe vera gel in FTIR. It is also supported by SEM analysis that showed Aloe vera extract was covered the BC fiber. Additionally, due to its biocompatibility BC/aloe composite was potentially using as scaffold material for skin tissue engineering.
