       This project has four objectives as follows:

1. The synthesis of at least three chitooligosaccharides, characterized by different polymerization degrees and hydrophilicity, by chitosan’s nitrous depolymerization.

​

2. The obtaining of three series of hydrogels based on previously synthesized chitooligosaccharides and 2-formylphenylboronic acid, with different crosslinking degrees and biodegradability.

​

3. The obtaining of drug delivery systems for the co-delivery of antifungal and antiviral agents.

​

4. Project results dissemination: (i) at least 2 papers published/sent to publication in specialized journals, with a cumulated impact factor >5; (ii) 3 presentations in international/national conferences.
