The Impact of the Molecular Weight of Degradation Products with Silicon from Porous Chitosan–Siloxane Hybrids on Neuronal Cell Behavior
Silicon (Si) is an essential trace element in the human body and it exists in connective tissue as aqueous orthosilicic acid. Porous chitosan–3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTMS) hybrids can regenerate nerve tissue and recover sensor and motor functions. However, the structures and roles of the...
