The cationic polysaccharide chitosan has been extensively studied for oral drug delivery. In recent years, chemically modified chitosans developed in order to improve the properties of chitosan for oral drug delivery have gained increasing attention. Representatives of these novel polymers are trime

## Abstract In this study, carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC) hydrogel beads were prepared by crosslinking with Ca^2+^. The pHβsensitive characteristics of the beads were investigated by simulating gastrointestinal pH conditions. As a potential protein drug delivery system, the beads were loaded with a m
A chitosan(CS)-tripolyphosphate (TPP) hydrogel bead was prepared by the ionic gelation method for the controlled delivery of glipizide. The structure and surface morphology of the beads were characterized by FT-IR and SEM, separately. Factors influencing the swelling behavior of the hydrogel beads w
