Abstract
Recent human and animal studies have indicated that chitosan-based delivery systems are promising alternatives to conventional formulation approaches for the mucosal delivery of biotechnology drugs, such as proteins and genes. Here, we briefly analyze the current chitosan literature, review promising in vivo studies, discuss the inherent biological properties of chitosan and present new selected technological advances using chitosan delivery systems.:Entities:
