Polysaccharides/propolis composite as promising materials with biomedical and packaging applications: a review

Abstract The design of biopolymers matrices for incorporating bioactive compounds represents a valuable technique various biomedical and packaging applications. Propolis has developed as natural byproduct from beekeeping wound healing, food packaging, production current review focuses on the composites prepared propolis with polysaccharides like cellulose, chitosan, starch, alginate, where chemistry, synthesis, application are seriously discussed. This study found that polysaccharide composite matrix may provide an appropriate platform different applications such healing adequate biodegradable packaging. Using is promise policy active upgrading
