This book offers a comprehensive exploration of cellulose and its derivatives in cutting-edge biomedical applications, catering to researchers, professionals, and students in the field. Cellulose was chosen as the sole focus of the book due to its exceptional properties and vast potential in biomedical applications. This book addresses the issue of the lack of a thorough resource that integrates both basic understanding and sophisticated applications of cellulose and its derivatives in biomedical research. By filling this gap, authors hope to encourage academics and industry experts to investigate the enormous potential of cellulose-based materials for tissue engineering, drug delivery, biosensors, and other applications. This book serves as a crucial reference for advancing the field of cellulose-based biomedical applications, resulting in significant improvements and novel treatments in contemporary healthcare and biomedicine. It is written for both novice researchers and seasoned professionals in mind.
