Novel synthetic strategies to produce biopolymer based hydrogels for biomedical applications are required currently. Collagen hydrogels for wound healing can improve their structural and physicochemical properties by incorporating polysaccharides within the fibrillar matrix. Novel hydrogels were syn...
