Exploring the use of choline acetate on the sustainable development of α‑chitin-based sponges

This study proposes a green and innovative methodology for the exploitation of natural polymers, namely chitin, using solvents with reduced toxicity for the creation of porous structures with the potential to be used in the biomedical field. Chitin is a promising biopolymer for the design of biodegr...
