Abstract
Laminarin (LAM) as a nontoxic, biodegradable, and biocompatible marine polysaccharide, has been reported for its ingenious bioactivities such as antioxidant, antitumor antiapoptotic anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory and dietary fiber activities, and distinct physicochemical structure possess a remarkably promising potential in biomaterial science. Synthesis of LAM-based microgels and bulk hydrogels have been reported in two stages: modification of LAM polysaccharide with polymerizable functional groups and subsequent crosslinking reaction. Therefore, here an easier and more effortless methods to prepare poly(laminarin) (p(LAM)) particles were tackled.
