Complete product characterization is critical for the successful development of biologics. CD BioGlyco is committed to providing clients with biological characterization services of Carbohydrate-based Biodegradable Materials, including antibacterial activity testing and biocompatibility testing. Our complete biological characterization solutions help you to advance polysaccharide-based biomaterials for biomedical applications from early development to commercialization.
Polysaccharides exhibit complex structures and a wide range of functional activities, and the structural groups of polysaccharides can be easily modified and compounded, offering the potential for exploitation. These biomacromolecules can be used as raw materials to develop different biomaterials for a variety of applications, such as blood flow adjuvants, surgical threads, wound dressings, and tissue engineering. For example, cellulose, chitosan, alginate, hyaluronic acid, and starch have been extensively investigated for the development of polysaccharide-based hemostatic materials.
Some polysaccharide-based materials have interesting and useful properties and show multiple biological activities, such as antibacterial, immunomodulatory, antimutagenic, radioprotective, antioxidant, anti-ulcer, or anti-inflammatory activities. Among others, antibacterial activity and biocompatibility are critical factors for the use of these materials in biomedical applications. Currently, various methods have been developed to study and determine the microbial properties, bacterial inhibition, and biocompatibility of polysaccharide-derived biomaterials. Rapidly developing materials characterization techniques, nanobiotechnology, and other technologies will continue to drive novel polysaccharide-based materials to market to better serve the biomedical field.

New polysaccharide-based biomaterials may have harmful effects or new biological properties. It is, therefore, necessary to determine their biocompatibility and antibacterial activity through testing before applying them to biomedical applications. CD BioGlyco offers a wide range of testing techniques and solutions to meet our clients' detailed requirements for the biological characterization of polysaccharide-based biodegradable materials. In addition, our expert scientists will help you analyze the experimental data and compile it into a detailed scientific report.
As a leading service provider in the field of carbohydrates, CD BioGlyco is well-positioned to offer clients professional Characterization Services for Polysaccharide-based Biodegradable Materials. Our team of experienced scientists will work closely with you and guide you through all aspects of biological characterization testing. Our well-equipped laboratories and knowledgeable resources offer you the flexibility to meet your specific requirements.
