In the present study, thin films based on the blends of chitosan (Ch) and hyaluronic acid
(HA) with and without collagen (Coll) were characterised using tensile tests, attenuated total …

Composite chitosan-nano-hydroxyapatite microspheres and scaffolds prepared using a co-
precipitation method have shown potential for use in bone regeneration. The goal of this …

Chitosan, a versatile biopolymer, has gained recognition in the discipline of dental
implantology due to possessing salient properties. This comprehensive review explores the …

Cosmetics, personal care and biomedical products obtained by bio-based polymers and
natural bioactive compounds are a new growing market. The ecological awareness is …

Nanophase hydroxyapatite (HAp) particles were aged in 0–2.5 wt.% chitosan acetate
solutions for 30 days to evaluate the influence of chitosan on HAp surface chemistry. The …

Chitosan is an attractive polysaccharide obtained by deacetylation of an abundant natural
biopolymer called chitin. Chitin and chitosan are excellent materials. To improve the …

The degree of deacetylation (DD) is increasingly becoming an important property for
chitosan, as it determines how the biopolymer can be applied. Therefore, a simple, rapid …

Chitosan is a natural biopolymer derived from deacetylation of chitin and it has been
investigated with interdisciplinary approaches for multitude applications. Chitosan …

The cytotoxicity profile of three chitosan derivatives with different affinity to water was
evaluated in vitro. The derivatives selected were carboxymethylated-chitosan (CMCH) …

Chitosan-based material has been widely used as bone substitute due to its good
biocompatibility and biodegradability. However, the hydrophobic surface of chitosan film …
