Chitosan, a polymer obtained by deacetylation of chitin is widely studied for its
pharmaceutical and nonpharmaceutical applications. Recommendations about uses of this …

In this study, chitosan, a commercially-available linear polysaccharide mainly used as
antibacterial agent, functional coating and drug-delivery system, is investigated to enlighten …

The aim of the present work was to investigate the preparation of polyelectrolyte hydrogel as
potential drug carrier for antibacterial Ciprofloxacin drug (CFX), intended for controlled …

In this paper, chitosan was reacted with monochloroacetic acid under alkaline conditions to
prepare carboxymethyl chitosan. A 2 3 full-factorial central composite design was applied to …

It is still challenging to treat wastewater bearing diverse sorts of organic dyestuffs via one-
step adsorption. Herein, a structurally simple magnetic chitosan (CS) composite (Fe 3 O 4 …

A novel chitosan-g-poly (acrylic acid)/attapulgite superabsorbent composite with water
absorbency of 159.6 gg− 1 in distilled water and 42.3 gg− 1 in 0.9 wt% NaCl solution was …

Chitosan, a chitin-derivative polysaccharide, known for its non-toxicity, biocompatibility and
biodegradability, presents limited applications due to its low solubility in neutral or basic pH …

Lysozyme was integrated into chitosan nanoparticles (CS-NPs) to improve the antibacterial
activity. CS-NPs and chitosan-lysozyme nanoparticles (CS-Lys-NPs) were prepared …

The thermal degradation of chitin and chitosan have been studied by using simultaneous TG
and DSC in nitrogen atmosphere. The model-free iso-conversional method has been …
