Injectable Nanocurcumin-Formulated Chitosan-g-Pluronic Hydrogel Exhibiting a Great Potential for Burn Treatment

Figure 3

Swelling ratios and biodegradation pattern of the nCur-CP nanocomposite hydrogel (15% w/v), CP hydrogel (15% w/v), and Pluronic F127 hydrogel (18% w/v) as a function of time. The degradation rate was determined by the mass loss method (b), whereas the swelling behavior was investigated by the swollen mass method.
