Figure 3From: The characteristics of bacterial nanocellulose gel releasing silk sericin for facial treatmentMoisture absorption and enzymatic biodegradation properties of biocelllose gel and paper mask. (A) Weight of water absorbed on the samples after placing in humidified desiccators with a controlled relative humidity at 81.47 ± 1.48%, 25°C for different time periods. (B) Percentage of degradation of the samples after incubated in 1.6 μg/ml lysozyme solution (pH 7.4) at 37°C for different time periods. (□) silk sericin-releasing bacterial nanocellulose gel and (■) the commercial available paper mask.Back to article page
