Abstract
Microbial fermented cellulose gel, citrus gel (CG), was successfully fabricated to porous foam by radiation treatment and freeze drying. The chemically induced radiation was used to create highly porous foam and further freeze drying of the CG produced tough foams with interconnected open pores for use in tissue engineering. The microstructure of the CG foam was controlled by varying the irradiation dose and quenching temperature with pore size ranging from several microns to a few hundred microns. Tensile strength and Gurley value of the CG foam were influenced by irradiation dose. These radiation induced CG foams are promising scaffolds for tissue engineering.
