Polysaccharide Hydrogels - Bog

This book bridges the gap between preparation of hydrogels, which is often discussed in books and reviews, and their characterization techniques. It aims to offer graduate students as well as researchers, including PhD students and those involved in R&D in pharmaceutical companies and academia, a valid support that can help them find appropriate keys to open the doors to the complex world of polysaccharide hydrogels. The first part of the book gives a wide overview of the most important approaches for the physicochemical characterization of hydrogels while the second one is mainly devoted to biomedical applications.
