Recenzii
"This book unveils the secrets of polysaccharide hydrogels that make them invaluable tools in the biomedical field. It presents elegant approaches to preparing hydrogels, techniques for a very detailed characterization of polysaccharides and their hydrogels, and recent applications."
— Prof. Carmen Alvarez-Lorenzo, University of Santiago de Compostela, Spain
"This book is one of the first to cover all the aspects of polysaccharide hydrogels from the basic aspects of chemistry and characterization to their biological relevance and medical applications and is a great and comprehensive answer to the first questions concerning hydrogels."
— Prof. Pierre Weiss, University of Nantes, France
"‘The gel is easier to recognize than to define (Dorothy Jordan Lloyd, 1926). This book gives significant answers to this ‘old’ but still intriguing statement as it brings together most of the up-to-date information on the hot topic of hydrogels obtained from polysaccharides, and their preparation, characterization and application in the field of pharmaceutics."

Descriere
This book bridges the gap between preparation of hydrogels, which is often discussed in books and reviews, and their characterization techniques. It aims to offer graduate students as well as researchers, including PhD students and those involved in R&D in pharmaceutical companies and academia, a valid support that can help them find appropriate keys to open the doors to the complex world of polysaccharide hydrogels. The first part of the book gives a wide overview of the most important approaches for the physicochemical characterization of hydrogels while the second one is mainly devoted to biomedical applications.
