Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biopolymeric materials are divided into natural biopolymers, which include chitosan, cellulose, and gelatin, and industrial or synthetic polymers, which include polyethylene, polyester, Teflon, and others. This kind of materials are versatile and can be applied in food and biomedical areas. These emerging applications have evolved due to the preparation of based-nanomaterials with physicochemical and biological properties and which can be applied by modulating the diffusion of the drugs through the skin to assemble functional constructs that restore, maintain, or improve damaged tissues.
For this reason, this Special Issue is aimed at revising the state of the art and current trends of biopolymeric materials for biomedical applications, specifically those designed for improving tissue engineering, dental composites, and wound dressings.
If you work with any related keywords or topics, this Special Issue, "Advancements in Biopolymeric Materials for Biomedical Applications", is a place for you to publish your latest results on cutting-edge developments to encourage further advances in the field of biopolymeric materials. You may submit reviews and research papers. I am deeply honored to serve as Guest Editor of this Special Issue and look forward to the publications.
Dr. Angela Faustino Jozala
Guest Editor
Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Pharmaceutics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2900 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
