Chitosan-gum arabic embedded alizarin nanocarriers inhibit biofilm formation of multispecies microorganisms.

Carbohydrate polymers
Biofilm formation by microorganisms is a serious clinical problem that leads to drug failure. Nanocarriers (NCs) have shown good potential for controlling drug-resistant biofilms, although the effective penetration and retention of NCs in biofilms is...

Biomimetic sharkskin surfaces with antibacterial, cytocompatible, and drug delivery properties.

Biomaterials advances
Fighting with the infection is one of the most challenging and costly burdens of the healthcare system. Several types of antibiotics and antibacterial agents have been designed and used in combating this dilemma. Nevertheless, the overuse of drugs an...

Evaluation of Free Available Chlorine of Sodium Hypochlorite When Admixed with 0.2% Chitosan: A Preliminary Study.

The journal of contemporary dental practice
AIM AND OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to evaluate the changes in free available chlorine (FAC) when 6% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) is admixed with irrigants 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), 2% chlorhexidine (CHX), and 0.2% chitosan i...

Efficient Prediction of In Vitro Piroxicam Release and Diffusion From Topical Films Based on Biopolymers Using Deep Learning Models and Generative Adversarial Networks.

Journal of pharmaceutical sciences
The purpose of this study was to simultaneously predict the drug release and skin permeation of Piroxicam (PX) topical films based on Chitosan (CTS), Xanthan gum (XG) and its Carboxymethyl derivatives (CMXs) as matrix systems. These films were prepar...

Portable Food-Freshness Prediction Platform Based on Colorimetric Barcode Combinatorics and Deep Convolutional Neural Networks.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)
Artificial scent screening systems (known as electronic noses, E-noses) have been researched extensively. A portable, automatic, and accurate, real-time E-nose requires both robust cross-reactive sensing and fingerprint pattern recognition. Few E-nos...

Single and competitive dye adsorption onto chitosan-based hybrid hydrogels using artificial neural network modeling.

Journal of colloid and interface science
Chitosan-based hybrid hydrogels such as chitosan hydrogel (CH), chitosan hydrogel with activated carbon (CH-AC), scaffold-chitosan hydrogel (SCH), scaffold-chitosan hydrogel with activated carbon (SCH-AC) and scaffold-chitosan hydrogel with carbon na...

Rheological and Dielectric Behavior of 3D-Printable Chitosan/Graphene Oxide Hydrogels.

ACS biomaterials science & engineering
The effect of concentration, temperature, and the addition of graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets on the rheological and dielectric behavior of chitosan (CS) solutions, which influences the formation of the blend materials for various applications includi...

Synthesis of chitosan nanoparticles, chitosan-bulk, chitosan nanoparticles conjugated with glutaraldehyde with strong anti-cancer proliferative capabilities.

Artificial cells, nanomedicine, and biotechnology
In recent years, natural and synthetic polymers have attracted much attention due to their great potentials in medical science. In the present study, we have investigated the effect of chitosan-bulk (Ch-bulk), chitosan nanoparticles (ChNP), chitosan ...

Investigation of magnetic silica with thermoresponsive chitosan coating for drug controlled release and magnetic hyperthermia application.

Materials science & engineering. C, Materials for biological applications
In this study, a drug delivery system for chemo-hyperthermia applications is proposed and fabricated. The delivery system consists of magnetic-silica (MagSi) particles being encapsulated within a pH/thermo-responsive chitosan‑g‑N‑isopropylacrylamide ...

Chitosan coated calcium alginate beads for covalent immobilization of acrylamidase: Process parameters and removal of acrylamide from coffee.

Food chemistry
This study reports on removal of acrylamide from roasted coffee by acrylamidase from Cupriavidus oxalaticus ICTDB921. Chitosan coated calcium alginate beads were functionalized with citric acid as nontoxic cross linker and activated by 1-ethyl-3-(3-d...
