β¦ Synopsis
The preparation of stable syndiotacticity-rich poly(viny1 alcohol) (s-PVA) hydrogels is easier in comparison with that of the atactic poly(viny1 alcohol) (a-PVA) hydrogels. The drug release with use of s-PVA hydrogels containing indomethacin of 1.5 mg/mL buffer solution was studied under several conditions: at the gelation temperatures of 2O-3O0C, the release temperatures of 27-47OC, and pHs of phosphate buffer solutions of 6.6-7.4, for the gels with the concentrations of PVA of 3-8% using the degree of polymerization of 2170-4380. Indomethacin has been released spending 14 h. The diffusion exponents were 0.45-0.50, corresponding to Fickian diffusion.

## Abstract Summary: In this work, INU, a natural polysaccharide, has been chemically modified in order to obtain new photocrosslinkable derivatives. To reach this goal, INU has been derivatized with MA thus obtaining four samples (INUβMA derivatives) as a function of the temperature and time of re
## Abstract In order to prepare costβeffective physically crossβlinked hydrogels including food salt sodium chloride, samples, were prepared with various concentrations of NaCl and respective atactic poly(vinyl alcohol) (__a__βPVA), and were evaluated. It had been observed that hydrogels containing
