- Pharmaceutical applications of cyclodextrins: basic science and product development (2010, background): “Mucus is present as either an aqueous gel layer attached to the mucosal surface or as an aqueous luminal component in soluble or suspended form.([89]) The thickness of the mucous layer that represents the UWL depends on its location, varying from 50 to 450 mm in the stomach to less than 1 mm in the ”
- Stability of Chitosan—A Challenge for Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Applications (2015, background): “In addition, excessive hydration at high relative humidity could weaken the mucoadhesive properties of chitosan carriers as a result of “dilution” of functional groups available for adhesive interactions with mucin [66].”
- Chitosan and Its Derivatives for Application in Mucoadhesive Drug Delivery Systems (2018, background): “Therefore, in both cases, weak mucoadhesion can be observed [121].”
