Bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) is a promising source of new functional and sustainable nanomaterials for myriad applications. The use of this highly pure and peculiar form of cellulose in the biomedical field, particularly in drug delivery, has become an active area of research and development as a result of the potential of this nanostructured material as a drug carrier for both oral and transdermal drug delivery (1).<br/>In this communication, recent research efforts on BNC-based membranes for drug delivery performed in our group will be presented with focus on multilayered based BNC systems for dermal application.<br/>
