Why is Chitosan Mucoadhesive
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that electrostatic attraction forces between chitosan and gastric mucin can be suppressed in the presence of 0.2 mol/L sodium chloride; however, this does not prevent the aggregation of mucin particles in the absence of this biopolymer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exploring the Factors Affecting the Solubility of Chitosan in Water
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of crystallinity and inter- or intramolecular forces in chitosan for its solubility in water was explored and the expansion of its solusability to a wider pH range was demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chitosan-based mucoadhesive tablets for oral delivery of ibuprofen.
TL;DR: Swelling and drug release was greater with the half-acetylated chitosan tablets than tablets containing the parent polymer and both tablets were mucoadhesive, the extent of which was dependent on substrate pH.
