“…Over the last few years, many attempts have been made to develop synthetic methods for CS-based particles, such as ionic gelation [ 44 , 45 , 46 ], polyelectrolyte complexation [ 47 , 48 , 49 ], emulsion solvent diffusion [ 50 , 51 ], emulsion crosslinking [ 52 , 53 ], spray drying [ 54 , 55 ], supercritical fluid drying [ 56 ], electrospraying [ 57 ], emulsion droplet coalescence [ 58 ], reverse micellar/emulsion methods [ 59 , 60 ] and sieving methods [ 61 ].…”
