Non-healing wounds are among the serious complications of type-2-diabetes around the globe, associated with high incidence of bacterial infection, chronic nerve and blood vessel damage, and eventually repeated amputation ...

The development of advanced nanomaterials and technologies is essential in biomedical engineering to improve the quality of life. Chitosan-based nanomaterials are on the forefront and attract wide interest due to their ...

The lack of angiogenic activity is one of the serious complications of chronic wounds associated with delayed wound closure, chronic ulceration, and subsequent limb amputation. Multiple lines of evidence suggest that nitric ...

Gels are usually not environment-friendly due to their difficult biodegradability. Therefore, the addition of chitosan, even in small amounts, will make such gels biodegradable and thus can be useful in many applications ...

Hybrid chitosan-resorcinol/formaldehyde xerogels were synthesized, and the effect of including minor quantities of chitosan on the consequent activated carbon was investigated. The resulting activated carbon were characterized ...

We investigated the impact of chitosan and oregano essential oil (EO) individually or in combination on the quality of eel fillets in vacuum packaging (VP) and stored under refrigeration (4°C). Treatments studied were (i) ...

In the present study, we successfully developed a cetuximab-conjugated modified citrus pectin-chitosan nanoparticles for targeted delivery of curcumin (Cet-MCPCNPs) for the treatment of colorectal cancer. In vitro analyses ...

Chitosan-polyethyleneimine with calcium chloride as ionic cross-linker (CsPC) was synthesized as a new kind of adsorbent using a simple, green and cost-effective technique. The adsorption properties of the adsorbent for ...
