Abstract
The objects of the study are polymeric composites synthesized by mixing chemically and structurally complementary natural (Agar-Agar [AA], Chitosan [CS]) and Synthetic (Poly-N-Vinylpyrrolidone [PVP]) macromolecules in the presence of low molecular weight substrates (Polyethylene Glycol [PEG-400], Glycerol [GL]) as plasticizer to regulate the surface properties and volume characteristics of hydro-gel materials with functionally specified operational parameters, such as high adhesive affinity to damaged tissues, biological compatibility with body and organ fluids, high esterase and antimicrobial activity.
