Abstract

35

Polysaccharide sulfates are naturally existing chemicals that show important

36

biological activities in living organisms. Cellulose sulfate is a semi-synthesized

37

polysaccharide sulfate with relatively simple chain structure and unique biological

38

properties, and its biological applications have been explored in research and clinical

39

trials. With the advance of cellulose derivatization and characterization, cellulose

40

sulfate molecules with tailored structures have been developed to fulfill individual

41

requirements. This review aims to provide a summary of recent development of

42

cellulose sulfate in biomedical applications. Its synthesis pathways were discussed

43

with structure-property relationship elucidated. The application of cellulose sulfate in

44

drug delivery and microbe/cell immobilization were summarized with emphasis given

45

on its polyelectrolyte complex formation processes.

1. Introduction

60

Polysaccharides are widely available biological polymers with remarkable structural

61

diversity. The unique backbone structure combined with good chemical amenability

62

further makes polysaccharides valuable resources. Currently, polysaccharides find

63

applications in almost every aspect of human life and with the functionality of

64

polysaccharide structures, it has become an important material in textile, medicine,

65

environmental protection, food and pharmaceutical industry (Lucia et al., 2012).

66

Cellulose is a simple polysaccharide with no branching or substituents, which is often

67

considered as the most abundant polymer in nature (Fox et al., 2011). It is massively

68

produced with relative low cost and shows wide applications in both industry and

69

academy (Glasser, 2004).

70

The hydroxyl groups of cellulose can fully or partially react with chemical agents to

71

obtain various derivatives with different degree of substitution (Habibi, 2014; Heinze

72

et al., 2012b), and a series of cellulose derivatives like esters (El Seoud et al., 2005)

73

and ethers (Nguyen et al., 2014) have been synthesized to meet specific requirements

74

from industry. Table 1 listed some typical cellulose derivatives currently available.

75

Due to structure similarity and biological origin, these esters and ethers have similar

76

applications in food and pharmaceutical industry. Most of these derivatives are also

77

mass produced.

78

Cellulose sulfate is a semi-synthesized cellulose derivative with relatively simple

79

chain structure and unique biological properties. Currently, it is still mainly produced

80

in lab-scale with limited commercial applications. Nevertheless, research has shown

81

that it can be applied as anticoagulant (Groth et al., 2001), antiviral (McCarthy, 2007),

82

contraceptive (Anderson et al., 2004), Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)

83

microbicide (Stone, 2002), etc. These areas are hot spots for both academy and

industry, and the potential markets make cellulose sulfate unique among cellulose

85

derivatives. Similar biological activities of cellulose sulfate were originally found on

86

some naturally occurring polysaccharide sulfates (Heinze et al., 2010). For example,

87

Figure 1 shows the repeating units of heparan sulfate, chondroitin-6-sulfate and

88

dermatan sulfate which are three important polysaccharide sulfates found in living

89

organisms. Meanwhile, cellulose sulfate has certain advantages over natural

90

counterparts, such as defined chemical structure and easy separation/purification,

91

which make it suitable for industry scale production and application.

92

This review would like to provide a summary of research on cellulose sulfate, and

93

emphasis is given to its application in biotechnological and medical areas, especially

94

the application of cellulose sulfate as a polyanionic polymer to form polyelectrolyte

95

complex films or capsules with polycations. Material synthesis pathways are briefly

96

reviewed and a future perspective is included to discuss challenges and prospects of

97

cellulose sulfate.

2. Cellulose sulfation: processing strategies

104

A series of synthetic procedures for the preparation of cellulose sulfate have been

105

investigated and methods for cellulose sulfation were recently reviewed by Heinze et

106

al. (Heinze et al., 2010; Heinze et al., 2012b). Therefore, detailed synthetic methods

107

and procedures will not be discussed here. Generally, three synthetic strategies have

108

been applied based on the solubility of substrates in reaction media. Table 2

109

summarized some typical synthetic methods reported in the literature.

2.1 Heterogeneous sulfation

112

Cellulose is difficult to be dissolved in most solvents (Pinkert et al., 2009). Therefore,

113

if cellulose is used as a raw material, sulfation process unfolds usually as a

114

heterogeneous reaction. H2SO4 and propanol are the most used reactants for

115

heterogeneous sulfation of cellulose (Yao, 2000), and recently Chen et al. (Chen et al.,

116

2013) proposed a modified process that used ethanol to replace propanol to simplify

117

the synthetic procedure and reduce cost. In order to restrain chain cleavage catalyzed

118

by H2SO4, the reaction is usually performed below 0 oC. This restriction can be 8

Page 8 of 56

overcome by using SO3-complexes such as SO3-pyridine and SO3-DMF as the

120

sufation agents, and dimethylformamide (DMF) is usually used as the solvent to

121

suspend cellulose during reaction (Zhu et al., 2014). Since cellulose sulfate has to

122

reach certain substitution degree to be dissolved in DMF, this method often results in

123

products with high degree of substitution. The heterogeneous strategy uses simple raw

124

materials with flexible preparation procedures. However, one problem for

125

heterogeneous synthesis is non-uniform substitution. As cellulose is not fully

126

dissolved, substitution mainly happens at the amorphous parts of cellulose with the

127

crystalline part remain unreacted.

128

2.2 Homogeneous sulfation

130

Homogeneous strategy can overcome this non-uniform substitution problem after

131

dissolving cellulose in certain solvents. Products from homogeneous synthesis usually

132

have even distribution, good solubility, and low chain degradation (Qin et al., 2014).

133

For example, N2O4/DMF was used for the synthesis of cellulose sulfate with

134

SO3-complexes as reactants (Wagenknecht et al., 1993). Cellulose nitrite is first

135

formed as an intermediate. It then reacted with SO3-complexes to obtain final

136

products with different degree of substitution. Moreover, cellulose sulfate synthesized

137

can be dissolved in water at very low degree of substitution (~0.3). However, N2O4 is

138

toxic which limits large scale production and also the application of the product in

139

biomedical areas (Gericke et al., 2009a). Meanwhile, ionic liquids have become

140

extremely popular in research (Rogers et al., 2003) and some are good dissolution

141

media for cellulose (Gericke et al., 2009b; Pinkert et al., 2009). Gericke et al.

142

(Gericke et al., 2009a) used 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (BMIMCl),

143

1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate (EMIMAc) and 1-allyl-3methylimidazolium

chloride (AMIMCl) in homogeneous synthesis of cellulose sulfate. The results

145

showed that direct sulfation under completely homogeneous conditions was

146

applicable. The minimum degree of substitution required for water solubility of the

147

product was 0.25. It is worth to note that the cellulose-ionic liquid system usually has

148

high viscosity which sometimes makes mixing problematic. Therefore, cosolvents are

149

usually needed to reduce the system viscosity. Synthesis in ionic liquids seems a good

150

pathway to prepare cellulose sulfate, but the high cost of ionic liquids needs to be

151

aware when considering mass production.

2.3 Quasi-homogeneous sulfation

154

In addition to homogeneous synthesis, cellulose derivatives with better solubility than

155

cellulose were used as reactants. Such strategies are referred as quasi-homogeneous

156

synthesis and the properties of cellulose sulfate prepared are usually dependent on

157

sulfation processes. Cellulose acetate, cellulose nitrite and trimethylsilyl cellulose

158

(TMS) are three typical derivatives used and the main problem of this strategy is the

159

complexity of reaction systems which need further effort for purification (Richter et

160

al., 2003).

161

The above discussed methods for cellulose sulfate synthesis are mainly for the

162

preparation of sodium salts. The development of sulfated cellulose has been further

163

explored in studying derivatives of cellulose sulfate (Heinze et al., 1999). For

164

example, methylated cellulose sulfate (Gohdes et al., 1997), carboxyl cellulose sulfate

165

(Zhang et al., 2010b), amino cellulose sulfate (Heinze et al., 2012a) and oxyethylated

166

cellulose sulfate (Udoratina et al., 2012) were synthesized with their biological

167

properties compared.

With the development of modern chemistry, fine manipulation of molecule becomes

173

possible and sometimes needed to obtained chemicals with specific properties.

174

Reaction conditions are milder when cellulose is fully dissolved that breaks extensive

175

H-bonds, which make it possible for regioselective and regiospecific synthesis of

176

cellulose derivatives (Fox et al., 2011). The regioselective synthesis of cellulose

177

sulfate has been reviewed (Baumann et al., 2003; Fox et al., 2011; Klemm et al.,

178

1997), and heterogeneous, quasi-homogeneous and homogeneous strategies have all

179

been applied with various reactants and solvent systems. However, many researchers

180

only use 1H and 13C NMR spectra data to support the regioselective synthesis, which

181

are not always convincing. Therefore, it is also important to develop a comprehensive

182

characterizing package for such research (Gohdes et al., 1998).

3. Structure-property relationship

185

Like many other polymers, the physical, chemical and biological properties of

186

cellulose sulfate, such as water solubility, chemical reaction and biological activity are

187

largely dependent on the molecular weight, the degree and distribution of substitution

188

along polymer chains (Heinze et al., 2010). It has been noted that the quantification of

189

cellulose sulfation remains challenging(Gu et al., 2013). Several characterizing

190

techniques have been applied in structure study. For example, Raman and infrared

191

spectroscopy were used to measure substitution degree (Petropavlovskii et al., 1971;

192

Zhang et al., 2010a). The correlation between certain Raman vibration signals with

193

total degree of substitution was built and the correlation results were compared with

194

13

195

which indicated that Raman spectroscopy can be a potential rapid method for

196

quantifying degree of substitution (Zhang et al., 2011a). Zhu and Yao (Zhu et al.,

Ac ce

184

C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and elemental analysis results,

13

Page 12 of 56

2012) compared polyelectrolyte titration, BaSO4 turbidimetry and elemental analysis

198

methods in the measurement of substitution degree. They found that BaSO4

199

turbidimetry and elemental analysis can provide similar results, but the polyelectrolyte

200

titration lacked consistency. Moreover, the distribution of sulfate group is an

201

important physical factor that can affect water solubility of cellulose sulfate. Gohdes

202

and Mischnick (Gohdes et al., 1998) used a series of methods including

203

permethylation, desulfation, deuteromethylation, random cleavage, remethylation, and

204

fast-atom bombardment mass spectrum to determine the substitution pattern of

205

cellulose sulfate by analysis of degraded samples. Cellulose sulfate prepared from

206

seven different sulfation processes were compared. Their work provided detailed

207

results about positions of sulfated groups on cellulose chains. Two-dimensional 1H

208

and 13C NMR spectroscopy (Kowsaka et al., 1991) and mass spectrometry (Mischnick

209

et al., 1999) were also applied in the determination of substitution distribution.

210

Moreover, the molecular weight of cellulose sulfate can be measured by low angle

211

laser light scattering (LALLS) and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) (Wang et

212

al., 2009b; Zhu et al., 2012), while LALLS has advantages of measurement without

213

standard polymer samples. Other properties of cellulose sulfate such as liquid crystal

214

formation were also discussed in literature studied by differential scanning

215

calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffractometry (Hatakeyama et al., 1995; Onishi et al.,

216

2009).

217

The performance of polymer materials in various applications is usually closely

218

related to their structures. Table 2 shows that the structure properties are most likely

219

determined by the reaction pathways. Heterogeneous synthesis usually results in the

220

formation of non-uniform substitution distribution, which is due to the solubility

221

difference of amorphous and crystalline parts of cellulose in solvents. Meanwhile, the

Ac ce

ip t

14

Page 13 of 56

degree of substitution is affected by reaction type and time. For examples, the

223

relationship between degree of substitution, percentage of water soluble parts and

224

viscosity was studied under heterogeneous synthesis with H2SO4/propanol mixtures

225

and the results can be schematically depicted (see Figure 2) (Heinze et al., 2012b). It

226

seems reasonable that with the increase of soluble part percentage and degree of

227

substitution, the viscosity of cellulose sulfate decreases.

232

The effect of sulfate groups on the properties of cellulose sulfate has been widely

233

studied, especially on sulfated nanocrystalline cellulose. For example, Voronova et al.

234

(Voronova et al., 2013) prepared films composed of nanocrystalline cellulose sulfate

235

and the relationship between film property and sulfate group contents was studied.

236

The results showed that both surface roughness and water adsorption ability enhanced

237

with the increase of sulfate group. Jiang et al. (Jiang et al., 2013) used sulfated

238

cellulose as substrates for cellulase to study the effects of sulfate group on cellulase 15

Page 14 of 56

adsorption and enzymatic hydrolysis. They found that the surface accessibility was

240

similar with different sulfate group density, but the binding domain decreased. An

241

inhibitory effect of sulfate group in enzymatic hydrolysis was discussed. Moreover,

242

the effects of sulfate groups on the thermal degradation of cellulose was studied (Lin

243

et al., 2014; Roman et al., 2004). The results showed that the degradation temperature

244

was significantly decreased with the sulfation of cellulose, and the sulfate group

245

showed a catalytic effect on cellulose thermal degradation. Lokanathan et al.

246

(Lokanathan et al., 2013) used cellulose nanocrystals to assist the synthesis of silver

247

nanoparticles. The results showed that cellulose after sulfation can stabilize silver

248

nanoparticles formation and the decrease of substitution resulted in narrower

249

nanoparticle size distribution. Moreover, Cellulose sulfate with high degree of

250

substitution has shown potential application as Microbicides (Anderson et al., 2002;

251

Yoshida, 2001; Yoshida et al., 2001).

254

4.1 Biological activity

255

Polysaccharide sulfates in living organisms were early found playing certain roles in

256

their biological activities, such as antiviral and blood coagulation(Ghosh et al., 2009;

257

Kindness et al., 1980). Currently, various semi-synthesized polysaccharide sulfates

258

have been developed and similar biological behaviors are also found from these

259

materials, such as chitosan sulfate, dextran sulfate and cellulose sulfate (Groth et al.,

260

2001). This review is focused on the application of cellulose sulfate with some typical

261

biological activities and related applications summarized in Table 3.

4.1.1 Anticoagulation 16

Page 15 of 56

Natural heparin is a widely used anticoagulant in clinical application but shows

265

certain side effects (Han et al., 2005). Therefore, development of alternatives like

266

cellulose sulfate is important. Moreover, cellulose sulfate has well defined structure

267

and lack of branches on polymer chains, which is good for quality control and

268

structure-activity research. Wang et al. (Wang et al., 2007) found that cellulose sulfate

269

showed higher anticoagulation activity than heparin under their experimental

270

conditions, and in vivo studies revealed that the anticoagulation activity of cellulose

271

sulfate was achieved by accelerating the inhabitation of antithrombin III on

272

coagulation factors in plasma. Similar anticoagulation mechanism was discussed by

273

Grombe et al. (Grombe et al., 2007). The effects of molecular weight and sulfate

274

group distribution on anticoagulation were also investigated (Wang et al., 2005; Wang

275

et al., 2010c). Although it was revealed that molecular weight was important in the

276

anticoagulation application, their in vitro and in vivo results seem controversial and

277

further research may be necessary in studying the structure-activity relationship.

4.1.2 Antiviral: HIV treatments

280

Antiviral has a large market in pharmaceutical industry and is a major focus for

281

biotech companies (McCarthy, 2007). Among newly developed antiviral substances in

282

recent years, sulfated polysaccharides are often highlighted. Some aspects of their

283

antiviral activity have also been elucidated, which becomes clear that the charge

284

density and chain length are not the only contributors in their antiviral performance

285

(Ghosh et al., 2009). Cellulose sulfate is one of the most reported sulfated

286

polysaccharides in antiviral investigation, which may mainly be attributed to a

287

commercial drug candidate named UshercellTM. It is a high molecular weight form of

288

cellulose sulfate developed by Polydex (Canda) and was found active against human

immunodeficiency virus (HIV), herpes simplex virus (HSV), Neisseria gonorrhoeae,

290

Chlamydia trachomatis, papillomaviruses and gardnerella vaginalis (Anderson et al.,

291

2004). UshercellTM also shows contraceptive in preclinical evaluations (Anderson et

292

al., 2002) and it has excellent safety performance in different studies (El-Sadr et al.,

293

2006; Mauck et al., 2001a; van der Straten et al., 2007) and phase I evaluation

294

(Mauck et al., 2001b). However, phase III study with a total of 1398 women enrolled

295

concluded that cellulose sulfate did not prevent HIV infection and may increase the

296

risk of HIV acquisition (Van Damme et al., 2008). The lack of consistence between

297

phase III and pre-phase III studies is still under discussion (Check, 2007; Neurath,

4.1.3 Cell regulation

301

Cell growth and stem cell differentiation are regulated by various factors such growth

302

factors and extracellular matrices. The binding between sulfated cellulose and

303

fibroblast growth factors (FGF) have been studied in the literature. For example,

304

Weltrowski et al (Weltrowski et al., 2012) studied the mitogenic activity of cellulose

305

sulfate and its protective effect against proteolytic digestion of FGF-2. Their results

306

indicated that the mitogenic activity of cellulose sulfate was related to the substitution

307

degree and concentration of the polymer, which showed an increase of cell growth

308

with the increase substitution degree and concentration. Moreover, they found that the

309

mechanism on mitogenic activity was mainly related to a prolonged life-time of

310

FGF-2 by protection of FGF-2 against proteolytic digestion. Peschel et al. (Peschel et

311

al., 2010) investigated the cytotoxicity and motigenic activity of cellulose sulfate by

312

modulation of 3T3 fibroblast proliferation with or without FGF-2. Their results

313

showed that cellulose sulfate and their carboxyl and carboxymethyl derivatives were

all non-toxic to 3T3 cells. Cellulose sulfate strongly promoted cell proliferation by

315

FGF-2 induction and this promotion was substitution degree related. Moreover,

316

cellulose sulfate were better than heparin in the absence of FGF-2. Meanwhile, no

317

significant promoting effects were found with carboxyl and carboxymethyl

318

derivatives of cellulose sulfate. In addition, the suppression of immunoglobulin E

319

expression by cellulose sulfate was studied (Morioke et al., 2012) and the application

320

of cellulose sulfate pairing with other polyelectrolytes on cell culture will be

4.2 Polyelectrolyte complexes

325

Polyelectrolyte complexes (PEC) usually refers to polymer systems formed by mixing

326

oppositely charged polyelectrolytes in solutions without covalent crosslinkers (Luo et

327

al., 2014). The formation process is based on the interaction between polyionic

328

polymers via electrostatic and dipole-dipole association, hydrogen bonds and

329

hydrophobic interactions. Therefore, the stability of PEC can be affected by various

330

factors, such as ionic strength and pH. Due to mild reaction conditions and wide

331

selection of polymers, PEC is often studied for drug delivery and biological

332

applications (Bertin, 2014; Müller, 2014).

333

Cellulose sulfate is a semi-synthesized polyanionic polymer that can form PEC with

334

various natural or synthetic polycations, such as chitosan and Poly-dimethyl-diallyl-

335

ammonium chloride. Moreover, the unique biological properties of cellulose sulfate

336

discussed in this review make it suitable and sometimes advantageous for some

337

high-demanding biotechnology applications, such as drug delivery and cell

338

immobilization. Table 4 summarized cellulose sulfate related PEC reported in the

339

literature and Figure 3 shows the chemical structures of the materials listed in Table 4.

340

Microencapsulation (Bhujbal et al., 2014) and layer-by-layer techniques (De Villiers

341

et al., 2011) are two of the most widely used approaches for cellulose sulfate PEC

342

preparation.

4.2.1 Drug delivery

352

The efficiency of drug used by patients is often limited by delivery route, drug

353

instability, immunogenicity and physiological barriers. Therefore, tremendous efforts

354

have been made in developing drug delivery systems (Lu et al., 2014). Techniques

355

such as extrusion, emulsion and spray drying are often used in industry for the

356

production of drug particles encapsulated with various materials (Cook et al., 2012).

357

However, drugs like proteins have special preparation requirements and mild

358

operation conditions are often needed. PEC microencapsulation is a suitable approach

359

for such applications and literatures show that polysaccharides such as alginate,

360

chitosan and cellulose derivatives are the most common encapsulation agents due to

361

their biocompatibility, easy availability and unique biological properties (Cook et al.,

362

2012).

363

Research found that cellulose sulfate synthesized via homogeneous pathway is

364

preferred for microencapsulation, because good water solubility, high viscosity and

365

uniform sulfate group distribution are favored in PEC formation (Gericke et al.,

Ac ce

pt

ed

M

2009a). Hartlig et al. (Hartlig et al., 2007) studied the effects of molecular weight of

367

cellulose sulfate on related PEC physicochemical properties. Sodium alginate and

368

poly(methylene-co-guanidine) (PMCG) were used as coupling polymers and the

369

results showed that polymers with similar low molecular weights resulted in PEC

370

dispersions with suitable physicochemical properties, while significantly different

371

molecular weight polymers lead to water insoluble aggregates. Müller and Keßler

372

(Müller

373

poly(ethyleneimine)/cellulose sulfate PEC films as controlled release matrices for

374

pamidronate, and the results showed that the drug release kinetics can be adjusted by

375

changing polymer mixing ratios. Supercritical fluid assisted atomization was also

376

applied in the preparation of cellulose sulfate, and spherical particles with narrow size

377

distribution and mean diameter from 0.3~3.0 μm can be obtained (Wang et al., 2010b).

378

In addition, chitosan as a polycation is often used with cellulose sulfate to form PEC

379

microcapsules. For example, 5-aminosalucylic acid and lactoferrin were encapsulated

380

individually with chitosan/cellulose sulfate/polyphosphate and good encapsulation

381

ratio and designed drug release profiles can be obtained (Wu et al., 2014; Wu et al.,

382

2013a; Wu et al., 2013b). Moreover, research showed the chitosan-cellulose sulfate

383

system can be used as a potential microbial-trigged colon-specific drug delivery

384

system (Wang et al., 2010a), as the PEC capsules formed by chitosan-cellulose sulfate

385

can only be degraded in the colon region after oral intake due to the rich of microbial

386

in human colon. For example, Figure 4 shows two blank capsules prepared by

387

chitosan-cellulose sulfate PEC and the actual size can be adjusted accordingly (Wang

388

et al., 2009a).

Layer-by-layer assembly is a more delicate technique for the encapsulation of drugs

396

and living organisms with cellulose sulfate (Aggarwal et al., 2014b). It can also be

397

used as surface coatings to modify various material surfaces (Baumann et al., 2003;

398

Müller et al., 1999). Multilayer PEC films or capsules are usually prepared by a

399

dipping-washing-dipping process, i.e. dip the template in one of the polymer solutions

400

for a certain time interval and then wash with distilled water and dip into the pairing

401

polymer solution. The whole process can be repeated until desired films are achieved.

4.2.2 Microbe/cell immobilization

414

Cell immobilization or encapsulation is used to protect cells from external

415

environment and provide microenvironment for cell promotion, and controlling cell

416

viability, proliferation and release of therapeutic chemicals (Acarregui et al., 2012;

417

Orive et al., 2004; Orive et al., 2014). This technique is often considered for disease

418

treatments, which can be treated as advanced drug delivery systems with living cells

419

as individual bio-factories. Therefore, it is important that the encapsulating materials

420

do not have negative effects on cell growth, and it would be advantageous if the

421

materials used can facilitate drug producing of living cells. Cellulose sulfate has

422

unique biological activities and research has shown its potential applications in cell

performed. Some of the immobilization methods and materials are listed in Table 4.

433

Cellulose sulfate paired with poly-dimethyl-diallyl-ammonium chloride (PDMDAAC)

434

is the most popular PEC forming combination (Merten et al., 1991), which has

435

advantages of stable physiochemical properties, robust mechanical strength, good

436

biocompatibility and sharp cut-off membranes. A typical encapsulation process with

A cytochrome P450 enzyme expressing and genetically modified allogeneic cells

444

were immobilized in cellulose sulfate capsules and its effects in pancreatic cancer

445

treatments were evaluation in a phase I/II trial (Löhr et al., 2001). The authors

446

concluded that higher survival rates might be obtainable with this strategy than

447

another cytotoxic agent. Cellulose sulfate related PEC has also been studied in

448

detailed for pancreatic islet cell transplantation for the treatment of diabetes mellitus

449

(Stadlbauer et al., 2006). Wang et al. (Wang et al., 1997) screened over a thousand

450

combinations of polyanions and polycations to search for new polymer candidates that

451

may suitable for encapsulating pancreatic islets. They found that the combination of

452

sodium alginate, cellulose sulfate, PMCG and some chloride salts was the most

453

promising. Stiegler et al. (Schaffellner et al., 2005; Stiegler et al., 2006) encapsulated

454

an insulin-producing cell line HIT-T15 with cellulose sulfate and PDMDAAC and

455

they demonstrated that cellulose sulfate is less immunogenic and more biocompatible

456

than other materials, and it did not influence cell growth and insulin production.

457

Essential nutrients and insulin can pass through the capsule membrane without

458

significant delay. Moreover, it was also found that freezing and thawing of the cells

459

immobilized in cellulose sulfate is possible.

460

In addition, the advantages of cellulose sulfate in cell encapsulation made it also a

461

promising candidate for microbe and enzyme immobilization. For example, bacteria

462

such as Klebsiella pneumoniae was encapsulated in cellulose sulfate-PDMDAAC

463

microcapsules for the production of 1,3-propanediol under both batch and continuous

464

modes (Zhao et al., 2006). The results showed that the biomass concentration was 2.6

465

times higher than that of free culturing in the microcapsules, and the substrate

466

tolerance and microbe activity were both increased. Lactate dehydrogenase was also

467

encapsulated in PEC matrices formed by dropping 2% w/w cellulose sulfate solution

Page 29 of 56

into 2% w/w PDMDAAC solution (Štefuca et al., 1991). The results indicated that

469

this mild preparation condition was suitable for sensitive enzymes. Moreover, the

470

enzyme can move freely in PEC without leakage, while the substrates can easily

471

penetrate into the semipermeable microcapsules. Nahalka et al. (Nahalka et al., 2008)

472

studied the immobilization of D-amino acid oxidase in alginate/PMCG/cellulose

473

sulfate/CaCl2 systems and approximately 52% immobilization yield (expressed as the

474

fraction of original activity) was achieved. The enzyme entrapped was 720-fold more

475

stable than free enzymes, which indicates the potential industry value of this

476

technique. The same PEC system was used in encapsulation of glucose oxidase by

477

Vikartovská et al. (Vikartovská et al., 2007) and the results showed that the

478

encapsulated enzyme had higher thermostability and storage stability. The reusability

479

was also dramatically enhanced comparing to free enzymes. Zeng et al. (Zeng et al.,

480

2013a; Zeng et al., 2013b; Zeng et al., 2012) used the cellulose sulfate-PDMDAAC

481

system to immobilize microalgae Chlorella sp. for removing total nitrogen and

482

phosphate in wastewater. They found that the capsules prepared had good mechanical

483

stability, biocompatibility and high substrate tolerance. Moreover, the microalgae

484

immobilized had a robust morphology. Furthermore, the cellulose sulfate-PDMDAAC

485

system have also been applied in other microbe/enzyme investigations, such as

486

monascus purpureus for natural pigment production (Liu et al., 2010), invertase

487

(Mansfeld et al., 1991), bovine spermatozoa (Weber et al., 2006) and brevibacterium

4.2.3 Mass transfer in PEC

491

The physical, chemical and biological properties of encapsulating materials are the

492

basis in determining the applicability of living organism immobilization. However, 31

Page 30 of 56

mass transfer inside those semi-permeable matrices/membranes is often vital in

494

determining the success of such applications, as nutrients need to be transferred in and

495

products need to be transferred out. For example, the diffusion coefficient of glucose

496

in cellulose sulfate-PDMDAAC membranes was investigated with a diffusion model

497

and was found at ~ 2.12×10-11 m2/s (Shanjing et al., 1998). Groot-Wassink et al.

498

(Groot-Wassink et al., 1992) used cellulose sulfate and PDMDAAC for hybridoma

499

cell encapsulation and found that albumin and transferrin were not able to diffuse

500

through the membrane, although the system protected cells from damage. One

501

advantage of PEC systems is that the diffusion characteristics can be adjusted by

502

changing preparation procedures and processes. Zhang et al. (Zhang et al., 2003)

503

prepared a series of alginate/PMCG/cellulose sulfate systems with different polymer

504

concentrations and the diffusivity of nine solutes was measured to establish diffusion

505

mathematical models. The effect of molecular weight of PDMDAAC on the cellulose

506

sulfate-PDMDAAC membrane permeability was studied by Dautzenberg et al.

507

(Dautzenberg et al., 1999b). The results showed that a homogeneous membrane pore

508

structure and a sharp membrane cut-off of ~2 nm can be obtained with PDMDAAC

509

molecular weight > 10 kDa, which is enough for stable inclusion of enzymes with

510

molecular weight > 20 kDa. In order to prepare membranes with higher molecular

511

weight cut-off, macroporous cellulose sulfate-PDMDAAC membranes were prepared

512

by adding starch in the system which was later hydrolyzed by amylase (Zhang et al.,

513

2005a). The molecular cut-off of the membrane was 70 kDa for globular proteins that

514

was approximately five times larger than systems without starch. Moreover,

515

membranes prepared from cellulose sulfate related PEC were also applied in

516

membrane separation of gas mixtures (Schwarz et al., 2001; Tamaddondar et al.,

517

2014).

5. Conclusions and future perspectives

520

Cellulose sulfate is a cellulose derivative with unique biological properties. Its

521

bioactive and ionic nature made it a promising candidate for live organism

522

immobilization and even can be used as pharmaceutical active ingredients in disease

523

treatments. This review presented a summary of current research on cellulose sulfate.

524

The synthesis methods were discussed and the emphasis was focused on its

525

application in biotechnological fields. Nevertheless, cellulose sulfate is still a

526

lab-product without commercialization. The materials used in research are most

527

individually prepared. Therefore, results from different groups are not comparable and

528

sometimes lack consistence. It is important to develop affordable and robust synthesis

529

pathways to obtain products with reliable quality, and also explore techniques and

530

methods for clarifying their chemical structures. Furthermore, regioselective synthesis

531

of cellulose sulfate is vital in fulfilling high-demanding requirements from biological

532

industry.
