Rubbery Chitosan/Carrageenan Hydrogels Constructed through an Electroneutrality System and Their Potential Application as Cartilage Scaffolds
Abstract
In the present work, the bulk and homogeneous composite hydrogels were successfully constructed from positively charged chitosan (CS) and negatively charged carrageenan (CG) in alkali/urea aqueous solution via a simple one-step approach for the first time. An electroneutral CS solution was achieved in alkali/urea, leading to a homogeneous solution blended by CS and CG, which could not be realized in acidic medium because of the agglomeration...
