Bone self-healing is limited and generally requires external intervention to augment bone
repair and regeneration. While traditional methods for repairing bone defects such as …

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

Gelatin is a promising material as scaffold with therapeutic and regenerative characteristics
due to its chemical similarities to the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the native tissues …

Hydrogels are versatile biomaterials characterized by three-dimensional, cross-linked,
highly hydrated polymeric networks. These polymers exhibit a great variety of biochemical …

Wound care remains a challenge in healthcare. This work aimed to develop a new polyvinyl
