Alginate gels crosslinked with chitosan oligomers - a systematic investigation into alginate block structure and chitosan oligomer interaction. [PDF]
Three alginates with different block structures, poly-M, poly-G, and poly-MG, were investigated upon ionic crosslinking with chitosan oligomers, using circular dichroism, rheology, and simulations, revealing a unique high gel strength poly-MG chitosan gelling system.

Functional Properties of Chitosan Oligomers Obtained by Enzymatic Hydrolysis. [PDF]
The aims of this study were to obtain chitooligosaccharides (COS) from chitosan (CH) with improved functional properties and comparison of the use of two different enzymes: commercial cellulase (CL) and the dedicated enzyme chitosanase (CS). After enzymatic reaction, chitosan oligomers (NFs) were isolated by methanol into two fractions: precipitate ...

Multifunctional Nanocarriers Based on Chitosan Oligomers and Graphitic Carbon Nitride Assembly. [PDF]
In this study, a graphitic carbon nitride and chitosan oligomers (g-C3N4–COS) nanocarrier assembly, which was obtained by cross-linking with methacrylic anhydride (MA), was synthesized and characterized. Its characterization was carried out using infrared spectroscopy, elemental and thermal analyses, and transmission electron microscopy.

Formation of Silver Nanoparticles Using Fluorescence Properties of Chitosan Oligomers. [PDF]
In this study, silver chloride nanoparticles (AgCl NPs) were prepared using chitosan oligomer (CHI) and chitosan oligomer derivatives (CHI-FITC). The CHI and CHI-FITC were used as markers to confirm the formation of AgCl NPs using their fluorescence properties as well as stabilizers.
