Keywords: | Drug release; Gamma radiation, chitosan; Membranes; Amoxicillin | Issue Date: | 2007 | Citation: | Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section B: Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms. 265:1 (2007) 406-409 | Abstract: | With the purpose of obtaining a biocompatible and microbiologically safe matrix that simultaneously could be used as wound dressing material and as a controlled drug release system, membranes with different thickness and different contents in chitosan and hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) have been prepared by [gamma] irradiation from a 60Co source. Antibiotic release experiments were performed before or after irradiation over amoxicillin loaded chitosan/pHEMA membranes in physiological saline solution, and monitored by UV-Vis spectrometry. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/3781 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.nimb.2007.09.013 | Rights: | openAccess |
