The in vitro solubilization and degradation of regenerated cellulose was studied under conditions which approximate those found in vivo, when the material is used as an adhesion barrier to assist normal wound repair. Factors affecting solubilization which were examined included the effects of serum

## Abstract Periodate oxidation of cellulose and cellulose dyed with reactive dyes at 32ยฐC in the presence and absence of various concentrations of alkali metal chlorides and sulfates has been studied. The extent of oxidative degradation undergone by cellulose and assessed in terms of copper number
Homogeneous periodate oxidation of cellulose was achieved through methylol cellulose. The dissolution of methylol cellulose into aqueous periodate solution was followed by the gradual decomposition of methylol groups a t random sites along the methylol cellulose chain. The recovery of glycol hydroxy
