Versatility of Chitosan-Based Biomaterials and Their Use as Scaffolds for Tissue Regeneration
Chitosan is a naturally occurring polysaccharide obtained from chitin, present in abundance in the exoskeletons of crustaceans and insects. It has aroused great interest as a biomaterial for tissue engineering on account of its biocompatibility and biodegradation and its affinity for biomolecules. A...
