Chitosan Hydrogels Crosslinked with Oxidized Sucrose for Antimicrobial Applications
Oxidized sucrose (OS) reacts with amino-group-containing polysaccharides, including chitosan, without catalyst, resulting in hydrogels entirely composed of carbohydrates. The presence of imine bonds with low structural stabilities and unreacted aldehydes in the structures of these hydrogels hinder t...
