The most important prerequisites for wound coverage matrices are biocompatibility, adequate porosity, degradability and exudate uptake capacity. A moderate hydrophilicity and exudate uptake capacity can often favour cell adhesion and wound healing potential, however, most of the synthetic polyme...detailed
This study focuses on synthesis and characterization of chitosan ascorbate nanoparticles (CANs) from a salified carboxylate form of chitosan with ascorbic acid. Evident changes were observed in crystallinity and structure of CANs from their parent polymer. CANs exhibited improved antioxidative p...detailed
