Polysaccharides in Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis

Abstract

In the field of tissue engineering and wound healing, materials based on molecules naturally occurring in the organism, such as peptides, polysaccharides, etc., are being intensively developed and applied. In this paper, we reviewed the use of polysaccharides as carriers for solid state peptide synthesis, as they have been the subject of many studies and potential applications. The combination of polysaccharides and peptides can impart new properties to the materials obtained, and thus open an interesting new route to possible applications.
