Microfluidics can precisely control the physiochemical properties of nanoparticles by mixing to the nanoliter. For this reason, nanoparticles for the transport of peptide drugs are to be developed in the study presented here with the help of chitosan from Heppe Medical Chitosan GmbH.
Dental, bacterial diseases such as periodontitis can lead to tooth and bone loss. In the study presented here, chitosan, gelatine and Scutellariae baicalensis radix were combined to form a hydrogel to produce an anti-inflammatory implant using 3D bioprinting.
Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in women. In order to prevent the occurrence of metastases and the recurrence of tumors, a hydrogel breast implant loaded with cisplatin chitosan microparticles is to be produced in the presented study.

Tea or coffee is certainly a philosophical question. What is the first thing you drink when you arrive at work? In all cases, it's about getting the day off to a good start. But is too much caffeine good? Can't you do something with chitosan? We looked around and found what we were looking for in South Korea. A new type of tea bag that decaffeinates the tea in the cup itself. An alginate-chitosan hydrogel was used for this.
Next week, the 14th World Meeting on Pharmacy, Biopharmacy and Pharmaceutical Technology (PBP) will take place in Vienna together with ResearchPharm. Alongside university researchers, a large number of companies from the pharmaceutical industry will be represented. We are very excited to be there this year as an exhibitor.
Biopolymers such as chitosan are attracting increasing attention as polymer electrolytes in dye-sensitized solar cells. Since chitosan has a low electrical conductivity, the study presented here aims to improve this by using salts and plasticizers.
