Effect of natural cross-linker on swelling and structural stability of kappa-carrageenan/hydroxyethyl cellulose pH-sensitive hydrogels
Genipin cross-linked kappa-carrageenan/hydroxyethyl cellulose hydrogels were prepared and the effect of cross-linking on hydrogels characteristics was investigated. Swelling and transform mechanisms of both native and cross-linked gels in different pH were also studied. We found that the concentrati...
