Medical Materials Based on Chitosan Succinamide–Glycerol Systems

Resumo

The conditions to obtain materials with elastic-viscous properties based on chitosan succinamide have been studied. A decreased polymer content and a transition from visco-elastic liquids to elastic-viscous systems were shown upon the addition of glycerol to an aqueous solution of chitosan succinamide. The systemic response, biological compatibility, and dynamics of bioresorbability of the obtained materials were studied during implantation in laboratory animals.
