- Characterization of 3D scaffold based on carboxymethyl chitosan and PVP (2026) · Journal of Materials Science Materials in Engineering · doi
Future work will focus on further enhancing scaffold performance by incorporating bioactive compounds, investigating alternative CMCh/PVP weight ratios, and optimising scaffold formation conditions. In the unmodified 50/50 scaffold, the intermolecular interactions were insufficient to form a stable network, causing the scaffolds to absorb water and dissolve upon immersion in PBS.
