Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of molecular weight and ionic strength on the formation of polyelectrolyte complexes based on poly(methacrylic acid) and chitosan.
C. L. de Vasconcelos,P. M. Bezerril,D. E. S. dos Santos,Tereza Neuma de Castro Dantas,M. R. R. Pereira,J.L.C. Fonseca +5 more
TL;DR: Observations were related to a description of polyelectrolyte complexation that was strongly dependent on macromolecular dimensions, both in terms of molecular weight and of coil expansion/contraction driven by polyelectrosan/poly(methacrylic acid) complexes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adsorption of Bovine Serum Albumin on Template-Polymerized Chitosan/Poly(methacrylic acid) Complexes
C. L. de Vasconcelos,P. M. Bezerril,Tereza Neuma de Castro Dantas,M. R. R. Pereira,J.L.C. Fonseca +4 more
TL;DR: Adsorption isotherms and zeta-potential measurements showed that albumin adsorption was controlled by hydrogen bonding/van der Waals interactions and that brush-like structures may enhance the Adsorption of albumin on these particles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Viscosity-temperature behavior of chitin solutions using lithium chloride/DMA as solvent.
TL;DR: Viscosity behavior was affected by temperature according to the Eyring model: concentration dependence of flow enthalpy of activation was correlated to polymer-polymer interactions and flow entropy of activation to the stiffness of the complexed chitosan macromolecular chain.
