EFFECT OF A DEXTRANE AND HYDROPHILIZING SUBSTANCES ON THE PROPERTIES OF THERMOSENSITIVE HYDROPHILIC GELS CONTAINING LACTIC ACID COMPLEXED WITH CHITOSAN
Journal Title: Progress on Chemistry and Application of Chitin and its Derivatives - Year 2013, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
Gels containing lactic acid complexed with chitosan at a stechiometric ratio 1:1 and 2:1 and 5-25% content of PEG-200 reveal pH from 3.42 to 4.95. The addition of 20 – 25% poloxamer 407 increases the pH from 4.55 to 5.30 for 1:1 gels and from 4.00 to 4.85 for 2:1 gels. The addition of 1.0% dextrane decreases the pH of investigated gels from 4.40 to 4.90 (1:1) and from 4.00 to 4.48 (2:1). The addition of poloxamer 407 at concentrations of 20 to 25% increases the dynamic viscosity from 506.14 to 641.20 for 1:1 and from 540.35 to 692.55 for 2:1 ratios. The addition of 1.0% dextrane increases the dynamic viscosity from 665.23 to 750.28 for 1:1 and from 645.50 to 740.16 for 2:1 ratios. The addition of dextrane and glycerol or 1,2-propylene glycol reduces the pH and maintains high adhesion. The use of dextrane and hydrophilizing substances allowed to obtain physiological range pH.

INFLUENCE OF DIFFERENT CHANGES ON BIOAVAILABILITY OF MEDICINE CHITOSANS ANTIPHLOGISTIC DRUGS
The increased adsorption of anti-inflammatory drugs on polymer with pH increased from 7.6 to 8.0 may be explained by the swelling properties of chitosan, which increase with increasing environmental pH to alkaline levels...
THE USE OF CHITIN AND CHITOSAN FOR THE REMOVAL OF REACTIVE BLACK 5 DYE
In this study, we investigated the effectiveness of Reactive Black 5 dye adsorption onto chitin and chitosan flakes. Adsorption capacity of chitin and chitosan, optimal pH of the adsorption process and reaction equilibri...
THIRTY YEARS OF PROGRESS IN CHITIN AND CHITOSAN
Although Braconnot’s discovery of chitin preceded Payen’s discovery of cellulose by almost 30 years, and the amount of chitin produced annually by biosynthesis is not that much less than cellulose, the industrial applica...
SENSITIVITY TO CHITOSAN ASCORBATE MICROAEROPHILIC BACTERIA ISOLATED FROM INFECTIONS OF ORAL CAVITY
The aim of the date was to determine the sensitivity to chitosan ascorbate microaerophilic bacteria isolated from pathological pockets, root canals and apical abscesses. Chitosan was obtained from Antarctic krill. The ex...
