Bacterial Nanocellulose Functionalization for Smart Bioelectronics: Integration into Biosensing, Neural Interfaces, and Tissue Engineering.
Review in ACS polymers Au, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC), a renewable biopolymer biosynthesized by specific bacterial strains, exhibits exceptional mechanical strength, water retention, and biocompatibility due to its nanofibrillar 3D architecture and high purity. Functionalizing BNC with conductive polymers, metal nanoparticles, enzymes, and peptides unlocks its potential for diverse applications in smart bioelectronics, including biosensors, neural interfaces, and tissue engineering. This review presents a comprehensive analysis of recent strategies for tuning BNC's electrical, optical, biological, and mechanical properties to meet the evolving demands of next-generation biomedical and wearable devices. We discuss a broad range of functionalization methodsfrom in situ nanoparticle synthesis and electrostatic assembly to cross-linking and doping with ionic liquidsand explore their role in enhancing conductivity, stimuli-responsiveness, and cellular interactions. Furthermore, we examine BNC-based nanocomposites designed for biosensing, wound healing, optoelectronic sensing, and flexible implantable systems. The review concludes by outlining current key hurdles including scalability, device integration, long-term stability, and stringent regulatory requirements for safe production, use, and clinical translation, while uniquely positioning BNC through a cross-domain comparison of biomedical and electronic applications, complemented by techno-economic insights into scale-up, cost, and regulatory challenges.
