It is a complete resource for the evolving field of polysaccharide based biomaterials and their applications in different fields. The volume focuses on their composition, properties, characterization, chemistry and applications and also highlights recent developments in polysaccharide based composites and nanocomposites spurred by advances in polymer technology and biotechnology. Divided into different sections featuring alginates, carrageenans, cellulose, starch, chitin, chitosan, gums, etc, each chapter presents chemical, physical, and biological attributes, and reviews the recent research performed such as drug carriers, selective water absorption materials from oil-water emulsions, purification of water, biomedical applications, etc. The authors hope that this brief will help to inspire scientists towards novel sources for chemicals, materials, and energy in the years to come. 410 0$aBiobased Polymers,$x2510-3407 606 $aPolymers   606 $aBiomaterials 606 $aNanotechnology 606 $aPharmaceutical technology 606 $aSustainable development 606 $aPolymer Sciences$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C22008 606 $aBiomaterials$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z13000 606 $aNanotechnology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z14000 606 $aPharmaceutical Sciences/Technology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B21010 606 $aSustainable Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000 615 0$aPolymers  . 615 0$aBiomaterials. 615 0$aNanotechnology. 615 0$aPharmaceutical technology. 615 0$aSustainable development. 615 14$aPolymer Sciences. 615 24$aBiomaterials. 615 24$aNanotechnology. 615 24$aPharmaceutical Sciences/Technology. 615 24$aSustainable Development. 676 $a541.2254 676 $a620.115 700 $aThomas$b Merin Sara$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01062605 702 $aKoshy$b Rekha Rose$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aMary$b Siji K$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aThomas$b Sabu$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aA.
