Biofabrication with Chitosan

Biomacromolecules, 2005
The traditional motivation for integrating biological components into microfabricated devices has been to create biosensors that meld the molecular recognition capabilities of biology with the signal processing capabilities of electronic devices. However, a different motivation is emerging; biological components are being explored to radically change ...

Chitosan-as a Biomaterial

Biomaterials, Artificial Cells and Artificial Organs, 1990
Chitosan [a (1----4) 2-amino-2-deoxy-beta-D-Glucan] is a unique polysaccharide derived from chitin. Several attempts have been made to use this biopolymer in biomedical field. The use of this material in the development of hemodialysis membranes, artificial skin, drug targetting and other applications are discussed.

Chitosan and Thiolated Chitosan

2011
Thiolated chitosans constitute an integral part of designated “thiomers”, which are thiolated polymers widely investigated for non-invasive drug delivery. In brief, thiomers display thiol-group-bearing ligands on their polymer backbone. Through thiol/disulfide exchange reactions and/or a simple oxidation process, disulfide bonds are formed between such

Sintering of Chitosan and Chitosan Composites

Volume 3: Design, Materials and Manufacturing, Parts A, B, and C, 2012
Chitosan is a naturally-occurring polymer that is derived through the deacetylation of chitin. Chitin, found in the exoskeletons of invertebrates, is ubiquitous in nature and easily collected as waste and repurposed for a multitude of industrial and biomedical applications.

Antifungal properties of Schiff bases of chitosan, N-substituted chitosan and quaternized chitosan

Carbohydrate Research, 2007
Schiff bases of chitosan, N-substituted chitosan, and quaternized chitosan were synthesized and their antifungal properties were analyzed against Botrytis cinerea Pers. (B. cinerea pers.) and Colletotrichum lagenarium (Pass) Ell.et halst (C. lagenarium (Pass) Ell.et halst) based on the method of D. Jasso de Rodríguez and co-workers.

AFM Studies of Chitosan, Gold‐Chitosan, and Silver‐Chitosan Films Morphology

Macromolecular Symposia, 2020
AbstractAtomic force microscopy is used in this work as a primary tool for investigating chitosan‐based films morphology. Chitosan films casted from chitosan solutions in acetic acid of various concentrations, as well as gold‐ and silver‐containing chitosan films, are studied.

Application of chitosan and chitosan derivatives as biomaterials

Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry, 2016
Abstract Chitosan is a linear polysaccharide composed of randomly distributed β-(1-4)-linked d -glucosamine and N-acetyl- d -glucosamine. It is one of the major cationic polymers and the second most abundant polysaccharides in nature. It is extensively used to the biomedical and the industrial fields. Specially, chitosan has been studied much in the

Antimicrobial Properties of Chitosan and Chitosan Derivatives

2016
The investigations of chitosan as an antimicrobial substance came into focus in the 1990s. The number of publications on this topic has been rapidly increasing since then, with more than 2,500 papers published in 2020. Initially, the interest was mainly related to potential applications in agriculture and food products, but currently, the emphasis on ...
