This article critically reviews the recent developments in the structural modifications of
chitosan and its nano-structured variants produced via different techniques and their …

Poly (dopamine) has emerged in recent years as a readily accessible synthetic analogue of
the naturally occurring melanins. However, the polymer's structure has proved difficult to …

Alternative methods of aqueous chromium removal have been of great research interest in
recent years as Cr (VI) is a highly toxic compound causing severe human health effects. To …

The selection, synthesis, modification and shaping of biomaterials are complex tasks within
the biomedical field. Human and plant tissues, such as, wood, bone and cartilage are …

Materials based on natural high molecular compounds are particularly interesting for
biomedical applications. It is known that the cross-linking agent used for preparation of …

The lack of functional groups or binding sites largely hindered the broad application of
microporous organic networks (MONs). Herein, we report the fabrication of the sulfonate …

The use of materials to restore or replace the functions of damaged body parts has been
