Biomedical Applications of Chitosan-Coated Nanosheets

Abstract

Nanotechnology paves the way for the synthesis of novel nanomaterials in one or more dimensions with a size range of less than 100 nm and enhances its specific application because of its unique properties. Nanosheets are a type of layered nanomaterial mostly designed using graphene, poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA), and molybdenum disulfide by liquid exfoliation method and are of great interest. Nanosheets fabricated could be employed with other materials to enhance their application in diverse areas. Chitosan, a cationic polymer in conjugation with various nanosheets, was designed for various applications like sensors, cancer treatment, drug delivery, and so on. Chitosan-decorated different nanosheets were formulated by various methods, and their diverse application will be focused.
