Dual stimuli responsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) coated chitosan scaffolds for controlled release prepared from a non residue technology

biomaterials for delivery of bioactive substances that can be controlled by external stimuli. Herein we report the production of smart partially biodegradable scaffolds that exhibit pH- and temperatureresponsive behavior and their effects on the release of a model protein and a drug of low molecular...
