## Abstract Endowing supramolecular gelators with cavities opens up a number of opportunities not possible with other gel systems. The well‐established host–guest chemistry of cavitands can be utilized to build up and break down gel structures, introduce responsive functionalities, or enhance selec

## Abstract Glucose oxidase was conjugated to the biopolymer chitosan using carbodiimide conjugation. Gel beads were formed from the enzyme–biopolymer complex, and the activity of the immobilized enzyme was compared to the method of encapsulating the enzyme in chitosan. The activity of the immobili
## Abstract The phase behavior of blends containing chitosan with poly(vinyl‐alcohol) (PVA) and poly(2‐hidroxyethyl methacrylate) (P2HEM) was analyzed. Blends were obtained by casting from acetic acid solution (HAc) and 1,1,1,3,3,3 hexafluoro‐2‐propanol (HF2P) and studied by DSC, FT‐IR, and TGA. Th
