the aim of the present work was to prepare and characterize biopolymer nanocarriers and evaluate their suitability in possible oral delivery of insulin. the egg albumin biopolymer was used to prepare nanoparticles which were further characterized by fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (ftir), transmission electron microscopy (tem), scanning electron microscopy (sem), zeta potential, dynam...

One of the ultimate goals of wound healing research is to find effective healing techniques that utilize the regeneration of similar tissues. This involves the modification of various wound dressing biomaterials for proper wound management. The biopolymer chitosan (beta-1,4-D-glucosamine) has natural biocompatibility and biodegradability that render it suitable for wound management. By definiti...

in this study, based on a biomimetic approach, novel 3d biodegradable porous hybrid scaffolds consisting of chitosan, gelatin, and tricalcium phosphate were developed for bone and cartilage tissue engineering. macroporous chitosan/ gelatin/β-tcp scaffolds were prepared through the process of freeze-gelation/solid-liquid phase separation. the results showed that the prepared scaffolds are highly...
