A hydrogel composed of cellulose nanofibers derived from microorganisms, which is friendly to both humans and the environment.
It is a hydrogel composed solely of cellulose nanofibers, approximately 50 nm in diameter, obtained through microbial fermentation and water. It is produced using a method similar to that of nata de coco, which we consume. It has high water retention properties, with cellulose making up 1% of the hydrogel while retaining 99% water, allowing it to maintain its moisture without drying out even when left at room temperature for extended periods. It is highly biocompatible and poses no harm when in contact with the human body. Additionally, it is an environmentally friendly material as it can be produced solely through fermentation without any chemical processing.
