Polysaccharide Based Wound Care Materials

Polysaccharides are finding an increasing number of applications in medical and pharmaceutical fields thanks to their biodegradability, biocompatibility, and, in some cases, bioactivity (Liu et al. in Cellulose 23:3129–3143, 2016 [1]). Since they also play an important role in the field of Wound Healing, the second chapter will be dedicated entirely to them.
