Chitosan-based hydrogel beads: Preparations, modifications and applications in food and agriculture sectors – A review
Open accessAbstract
Chitosan is produced by deacetylation of chitin, the second-most abundant biopolymer on earth. With three types of reactive functional groups, one amino group and both primary and secondary hydroxyl groups, chitosan has been used as a popular biomaterial for synthesis of three-dimensional and flexible hydrogel beads that swell in water and biological fluids. Chitosan-based hydrogel beads have been found in a wide range of applications in food and agriculture sectors. This review first provides an overview of traditionally used and recently developed methods for preparation and modification of chitosan-based hydrogel beads, and then discusses the advances in the most recent five years in their applications for delivery of food bioactive compounds and treatment of agricultural recycled wastewater.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
