Chitosan-Based Polyelectrolyte Complex Cryogels with Elasticity, Toughness and Delivery of Curcumin Engineered by Polyions Pair and Cryostructuration Steps

Chitosan-Based Polyelectrolyte Complex Cryogels with Elasticity, Toughness and Delivery of Curcumin Engineered by Polyions Pair and Cryostructuration Steps

Chitosan (CS)-based drug delivery systems (DDSs) are often stabilized by chemical cross-linking. A much more friendly approach to deliver drugs in a controlled manner is represented by polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) physically stabilized by spontaneous interactions between CS and natural or synthe...
