The chitin is one of the most abundant biopolymers in biomass. Its main industrial derivative is the chitosan. These two polysaccharides present an increasing interest...

Use of nanoparticulate vectors in vaccination as controlled release systems based on biodegradable polymers has been widely studied, particularly for HIV vaccine...

This work deals with the study of the biological properties of bi-layered chitosan physical hydrogels within the context of third degree burns healing. These materials...

The chelating properties of two polymers: chitosan (a biopolymer) and polyethyleneimine (PEI, synthetic polymer) have been used for the binding of metal ions, and more...

The main objective of this work was to develop an interrupted wet-spinning process for the elaboration of hollow and multi-membrane chitosane fibers. The knowledge of...

Bionanocomposites represent an emerging group of nano-structured hybrid materials. They are formed by the combination of natural polymers and inorganic solids and show...
