Polysaccharides are the most abundant naturally available carbohydrate polymers;
composed of monosaccharide units covalently connected together. Chitosan is the most …

Abstract A chitosan-pectin (CS-PEC) biopolymeric hydrogel wound dressing was
investigated for lidocaine delivery. Here we demonstrate for the first time the feasibility of …

Pectin, a polysaccharide, is ubiquitously found in cell wall of higher plants. It is traditionally
used in the preparation of jam, jellies, and marmalades as a gelling agent. New applications …

The advances in additive manufacturing over the past decade have led to the development
of innovative strategies in several healthcare sectors. The treatment and healing of chronic …

Nanomaterials, that is, materials made up of individual units between 1 and 100
nanometers, have lately involved a lot of attention since they offer a lot of potential in many …

Thermosensitive hydrogels, having unique sol–gel transition properties, have recently
received special research attention. These hydrogels exhibit a phase transition near body …

The aim of this study was to design a pectin-chitosan (PEC-CS) hydrogel loaded with a
bioadhesive-design micelle containing large amount of ciprofloxacin for antibacterial and …

Polysaccharides (PSA) have taken specific position among biomaterials for advanced
applications in medicine. Nevertheless, poor mechanical properties are known as the main …

Delivery of therapeutics to the intestinal region bypassing the harsh acidic environment of
the stomach has long been a research focus. On the other hand, monitoring a system's pH …
