Description
Chitosan glycidyl methacrylate is a chitosan derivative with methacrylate groups. And it can be used as a versatile biomaterial, employed in tissue engineering, drug delivery, and wound healing due to its biocompatibility and polymerization capabilities.
Applications
Methacrylate functionalized chitosan is thermo/photo cross-linkable and can be used as a precursor for hydrogel synthesis in a variety of biomedical applications such as tissue engineering, 3D bioprinting, and drug and gene delivery. Because chitosan-based materials have mucoadhesive characteristics, they are commonly be used in transmucosal medicines delivery.
