Chitosan as Functional Biomaterial for Designing Delivery Systems in Cardiac Therapies
Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of mortality across the globe, and transplant surgeries are not always successful since it is not always possible to replace most of the damaged heart tissues, for example in myocardial infarction.
