Abstract: Chitosan/PCL block-copolymer networks were synthesized using different amounts of aldehyde end-capped polycaprolactone as crosslinking agent. The crosslinking reaction was performed by dissolving both components in the common solvent hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP). The formation of the network… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/00914037.2017.1376196
Abstract: ABSTRACT A composite based on nano-hydroxyapatite (n-HA)/chitosan (CS) and loaded with ciprofloxacin (CIP) was prepared and its physicochemical properties, antibacterial properties, drug release ability, and bone regeneration ability were characterized. The physicochemical results indicated that… read more here.
