Chitosan Micro/Nanocapsules in Action: Linking Design, Production, and Therapeutic Application

pH sensitivity of chitosan allows for precise phase transitions in acidic environments, controlling swelling and shrinking, making chitosan suitable for drug delivery systems. pH transitions are modulated by the presence of cross-linkers by the functionalization of the chitosan chain. This review re...
