Chitosan, a mucopolysaccharide of marine origin, was studied for its safety and hemostatic
potential. Its surface was treated with glutaraldehyde, carbodiimide, and plasma glow …

We present the development of theranostic nanoplatforms (NPs) based on a europium (Eu 3+
) doped calcium deficient hydroxyapatite (CDHA) core functionalized with cyclodextrin (β-…

The inconvenience of subcutaneous insulin delivery leads to low patient compliance with the
dosage regimens. The most desirable form of administration seems to be through the oral …

Aspirin and heparin were embedded in chitosan/polyethylene vinyl acetate co-matrix to
develop a prolonged release form. The in vitro release profiles of these drugs from the co-matrix …

Chitin and chitosan (CS) are biopolymers having immense structural possibilities for chemical

Exposure of cabbage plants to excess (500 μM) of Co 2+ , Ni 2+ and Cd 2+ in sand culture
led to increased accumulation of the metals, inhibition of growth and induction of visible …

Chitosan [a (1 → 4) 2-amino-2-deoxy-β-D-Glucan] is a unique polysaccharide derived from
chitin. Several attempts have been made to use this biopolymer in bio-medical field. The use …

The skin is considered the largest organ of the body and has many different functions. The
epidermis or outer layer is made of mostly dead cells with a protein called keratin. This makes …
