Synthesis, characterization, and drug delivery property of 2-N-carboxymethyl-6-O-diethylaminoethyl-chitosan
A novel route is demonstrated for the synthesis of 2-N-carboxymethyl-6- O-diethylaminoethyl-chitosan (DEAE-CMC) by incorporation of carboxymethyl groups as hydrophilic moieties to the C2-NH2, and diethylaminoethyl groups as hydrophobic moieties to the C6-CH2OH of the structural unit of chitosan, via...
