Chitosan as excipient against Heliobacter pylori

H. pylori infections in the stomach are difficult to combat due to the formation of antibiotic resistance, biofilms and intracellular infections. In the presented study, a hydrogel platform based on chitosan and palmitic acid will be used as an alternative to antibiotic-based therapy.

Be careful and don't accidentally compare apples with oranges

Again, and again we come across publications in which chitosans are compared with each other. For example, we recently came across a paper comparing chitosan from crustaceans with that from fungi in bone tissue engineering applications (Iqbal et al. 2024). But to what extent was it actually valid?
