Xylan polysacccharides, both with and without acetyl substituents, were obtained from the
specific hardwood Eucalyptus urograndis by controlled extraction processes and eventually …

Pore-forming agents have a significant influence on the pore structure of hydrogels. In this
study, a porogenic technique was employed to investigate the preparation of macroporous …

Xylan, an abundant biopolymer mainly extracted from plants and algae, is commonly studied
for textile, food and biomedical applications. In this review, different approaches to obtain …

Recent advances in the area of hydrogel synthesis have been directed to enhance the
mechanical properties and biocompatibility, which are critical in their use as functional …

Xylan polysaccharides from Eucalyptus urograndis wood were obtained by controlled
extraction processes to provide xylans with and without acetyl groups. Xylans extracted were …

Xylan-based temperature/pH sensitive hydrogels were prepared by the crosslinking
copolymerization of xylan with N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAm) and acrylic acid (AA) using …

Improving the mechanical performance of hemicellulose-based hydrogel is an enormous
challenge. Here, we propose a new strategy to achieve the hemicellulose-based hydrogels …

Hydrogels, three-dimensional (3D) polymer networks, present unique properties, like
biocompatibility, biodegradability, tunable mechanical properties, sensitivity to various …

Hydrogels are three-dimensional crosslinked structures with physicochemical properties
similar to the extracellular matrix (ECM). By changing the hydrogel's material type …

We present the effect of size, charge, and hydrophobicity of anticancer drugs on their drug
encapsulation efficacy in an L-alanine-based small-molecule hydrogelator. Entrapment of …
