| Abstract:
|
Natural polysaccharides are widely being studied as a carrier material for drug delivery because of its non-toxic, biodegradable
nature. Among them, chitosan has been studied extensively in drug delivery and biomedical fields. Chitosan has
found its application as a support material for gene delivery, cell culture, and tissue engineering. Recently, chitosan is being
modified to obtain novel biomaterial for controlled drug delivery applications. This article provides an overview of the synthetic
procedures of chitosan derivatives and their applications with special attention being put on controlled drug delivery
and biomedical engineering.
