Impact of magnetic nanofillers in the swelling and release properties of k-carrageenan hydrogel nanocomposites

Natural polysaccharides such as -carrageenan are an important class of biomaterials for drug delivery. The incorporation of magnetic nanoparticles in polysaccharide hydrogels is currently being explored as a strategy to confer to the hydrogels novel functionalities valuable for specific bio-applicat...
