Antibacterial agents that have been commercialized nowadays are produced from inorganic and non-renewable substances.

This paper reviews the current research trend of applying cellulose as a membrane material that mimics one of three typical biostructures: superhydrophobic, underwater superoleophobic, and Janus surfaces.
