Polymer-based drug delivery depots have been investigated over the last several decades
as a means to improve upon the lack of tumor targeting and severe systemic morbidities …

Barrier membranes are used in periodontal applications with the aim of supporting
periodontal regeneration by physically blocking migration of epithelial cells. The present …

Self-assembly of amphiphilic polysaccharides provides a positive outlook for drug delivery
systems without the need for solvents or surfactants. Various polymeric amphiphilic …

In this paper, an in situ injectable nano-composite hydrogel composed of curcumin, N, O-
carboxymethyl chitosan and oxidized alginate as a novel wound dressing was successfully …

A granular hydrogel based on chitosan (CTS) and acrylic acid (AA) was prepared using
Fenton's reagent as the redox initiator and N, N′-methylenebisacrylamide as the …

Chitosan, a biodegradable naturally occurring polymer, has drawn considerable attention in
recent years as a scaffolding material in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine …

Natural polymers are adequate renewable resources for the processability of well-defined
architectures for several applications. Combinations of polysaccharides and proteins may …

Conjugation of chitosan with nucleobases is expected to expand its not only antimicrobial
activity but also anti-cancer activity. Here, we report the synthesis of a novel chitosan …

The present study describes preparation and characterization of fibrin–chitosan–sodium
alginate composite (F–C–SA) in sheet form. F–C–SA composite was prepared and …

The second edition of An Introduction to Biomaterials consists of 33 chapters that have been
