CHITOSAN COMPOSITES PREPARATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF GUIDE TUBES FOR NERVE REPAIR

ABSTRACT Nerve regeneration is a biologically complex phenomenon. Once the nervous system is damaged, its recovery is difficult and causes a malfunction in other parts of the body that can occur because mature neurons do not suffer cell division. To increase the prospects of axonal regeneration and...
