HAEMOSTATIC, RESORBABLE DRESSING OF NATURAL POLYMERS - HEMOGUARD
Journal Title: Progress on Chemistry and Application of Chitin and its Derivatives - Year 2015, Vol 0, Issue
Abstract
Investigations are presented in the preparation of a first aid haemostatic dressing that would exhibit an adequate haemostatic capacity in injuries and surgical wounds, an antibacterial activity to prevent primary and secondary infections, and offer safety in use.

MECHANISM OF FORMATION OF THERMOSENSITIVE CHITOSAN CHLORIDE GELS
In these studies, an attempt has been made to explain the mechanism of gel formation. The studies were carried out to develop the mechanism of chitosan gel formation in the presence of glycerol phosphate GP, taking into...
INFLUENCE OF DIBUTYRYLCHITIN ON HISTAMINE RELEASE FROM MAST CELLS
DBC induces histamine release from mast cells and can modulate function of mast cells in vitro. Histamine excretion from mast cells activated with DBC is considerably lower than for model of anaphylactoid reaction. Modul...
SYNTHESIS AND POTENTIAL CYTOTOXICITY EVALUATION OF CARBOXYMETHYL CHITOSAN HYDROGELS
The aim of the research was to employ radiation to produce flexible carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS) based hydrogels of uniform structure to characterise their swelling properties and cytocompatibility for potential applica...
RESEARCH OF THE INFLUENCE OF CHITIN-CONTAINING FOOD ADDITIVES ON THE RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES AND BIOLOGICAL VALUE OF MINCED FISH
The problem of the deficiency of dietary fibre and mineral substances in the diet of modern man is well known. This problem is proposed to be solved by making a food product - fishballs - based on a combination of minced...
THE STRENGTH OF CHITOSAN FILMS. THE ROLE OF MOLECULAR WEIGHT, THE DEGREE OF ORDER, THE NATURE OF CONTRE-ION
The deformational-strength characteristics of chitosan films with different molecular weight and the degree of deacetylation derived from water-acid solutions with different nature and concentration have been researched....
