Chitosan-Alginate Biocomposite Containing Fucoidan for Bone Tissue Engineering
Over the last few years, significant research has been conducted in the construction of artificial bone scaffolds. In the present study, different types of polymer scaffolds, such as chitosan-alginate (Chi-Alg) and chitosan-alginate with fucoidan (Chi-Alg-fucoidan), were developed by a freeze-drying method, and each was characterized as a bone graft substitute. The porosity, water uptake and re...
متن کاملImmobilization of Glucose Oxidase in Alginate-Chitosan Microcapsules
In order to improve its stability and catalytic rate in flour, the immobilization of glucose oxidase (GOX) was investigated in this work. The enzyme was encapsulated in calcium alginate-chitosan microspheres (CACM) using an emulsification-internal gelation-GOX adsorption-chitosan coating method. The interaction between alginate and chitosan was confirmed by infrared spectroscopy (IR). The resul...
متن کاملProliferation and Differentiation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Encapsulated in Miniaturized 3D Core of Alginate-Chitosan-Alginate (ACA) Microcapsules
Murine C3H10T1/2 cells were used as a model of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in this study to investigate their capability of proliferation and differentiation in the miniaturized core of small (~100 μm) alginate-chitosan-alginate (ACA) microcapsules. The results show that the cells can survive and proliferate well in the microcapsules, particularly those with a liquid core. Moreover, successfu...
متن کاملChitosan-coated alginate microcapsules loaded with galactagogue herbs extract: formulation optimization and characterization
Many herbs and spices have been recommended traditionally as galactagogues and several commercial formulations prepared using herbs. Due to the presence of various compounds such as polyphenols, flavonoids, isoflavones and terpenes, bitter and stringent taste is elicited that make the consumption of these herbal preparations unpleasant. Moreover, these compounds are unstable when exposed to env...
متن کاملChitosan-pectin-alginate as a novel scaffold for tissue engineering applications
Chitosan-pectin, chitosan-alginate and chitosan-pectin-alginate scaffolds were prepared by freeze-drying technique. The physicochemical characteristics of the scaffolds were characterized by FTIR and SEM. The biological activities like antibacterial assessment, swelling behavior, biodegradation and cytotoxicity study of the prepared scaffolds were evaluated. The results show high swelling prope...
