Synthesis and evaluation of functionalized chitosan-hydrogelation towards the efficacy of hydrophobic drug delivery.
Self-fluorescent hydrogels of modified Chitosan (Ch) in chitosan@2-hydroxy-5-methylbenzaldehyde (ChP1), chitosan@2-hydroxy-5-methylisophthalaldehyde (ChP2) with variation of crosslinking modes were synthesized. The formation of CN for the gelation is indicated through reduction of peak intensity at 1578 cm-1 in Raman s...
