Heat may be employed to facilitate the processing of chitosan and to confer sterility on chitosan-based medical products. In this study, changes were analyzed of the physical properties of purified chitosan heated at 60 to 160 degrees C under specified conditions for periods ranging from 0.5 to 4 h.
Sterilization is required for using any device in contact with the human body. Numerous authors have studied device properties after sterilization and reported on bulk and surface modifications of many materials after processing. These surface modifications may in turn influence device biocompatibil
