Mucoadhesion: A food perspective [PDF]
The role of mucoadhesion in the perception and sensory characterisation of food products is becoming more apparent. Traditionally, mucoadhesives are used to enhance drug permeability and retention at mucosal membranes in the body, by adherence to a mucosal membrane formed through various interactions between the mucoadhesive and proteins present in the

Advances in Mucoadhesion and Mucoadhesive Polymers
AbstractMucoadhesion is the ability of materials to adhere to mucosal membranes in the human body and provide a temporary retention. This property has been widely used to develop polymeric dosage forms for buccal, oral, nasal, ocular and vaginal drug delivery.

Applications of chitosan derivatives as adjuvants for nanoparticle-based vaccines: A comprehensive review. [PDF]
This review highlights how chitosan derivatives enhance nanoparticle‐based vaccines through superior stability, mucoadhesion, and immune modulation. By triggering robust mucosal, humoral, and cellular responses, these biocompatible polymers serve as a transformative platform for next‐generation immunotherapeutics and safe and effective vaccine delivery

Mucoadhesive Peptide-Catalase Self-Assembled Nano-Formulation for Effective Treatment of Mucosal Inflammatory Diseases. [PDF]
CR8L10 is self‐assembled with catalase (CAT) to form CR8L10@CAT nanocomplexes, which can anchor to mucosal surfaces via thiol‐disulfide exchange with mucin, thereby enhancing their mucosal retention. The efficient reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging at inflamed sites would then result in successful treatment in both the intravesical IC/BPS model ...

Mucoadhesion : mucin-polymer molecular interactions
Mucoadhesion, adhesion of a material to a mucous membrane or a mucus-covered surface, has been employed in drug delivery to prolong contact with adsorption sites and consequently a likely improvement of drug absorption.

Mucoadhesive Marine Polysaccharides
Mucoadhesive polymers are of growing interest in the field of drug delivery due to their ability to interact with the body’s mucosa and increase the effectiveness of the drug. Excellent mucoadhesive performance is typically observed for polymers possessing charged groups or non-ionic functional groups capable of forming hydrogen bonds and electrostatic
