Bio‐Based Microfluidics With Snail Slime: A By‐Product of Agriculture Plays an Exciting Role in the Chemistry of Microfluidic Reaction Chambers

open access: yesMacromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Due to a broad spectrum of active ingredients, snail slime presents a variety of exciting physical properties and chemical reactivities. Especially in the role of the reduction‐ and stabilizing agent for the manufacturing of gold nanoparticles, its great potential is revealed. Utilising the proteins found in slime, Nanoparticle‐comprising hydrogels are

Reducing-end “clickable” functionalizations of chitosan oligomers for the synthesis of chitosan-based diblock copolymers

open access: yesCarbohydrate Polymers, 2019
Chitooligosaccharides (COS) produced by nitrous acid depolymerization of chitosan are unique chitosan oligomers due to the presence of the 2,5-anhydro-d-mannofuranose (amf) unit at their reducing end. In this work, we focused on the reductive amination and the oximation of the amf aldehyde group towards various functionalized anilines, hydrazides and O-

Polylimonene Improves the In Vivo Wound Healing Performance of Sodium Alginate‐Based Hydrogels

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 12, March 20, 2026.
An oligomer derived from orange peel essential oil incorporated into an alginate hydrogel was shown to be biocompatible and to exhibit a high capacity for in vivo incisional wound healing, as confirmed by experimental assays and mathematical models fitted to the data describing wound area reduction as a function of the dressing‐tissue contact time ...
