Synthesis and Characterization of an Amphiphilic Linoleic Acid-g-Quaternary Chitosan with Low Toxicity
A novel amphiphilic derivative of chitosan, namely, a linoleic acid-g-quaternary chitosan (LA-g-QC), was designed and synthesized as low toxic material for biomedical applications in this study. The chemical structure of LA-g-QC was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), 1H...
