Resumen:
The aim of this work was to obtain, characterize and apply ferrogels in adsorption and controlled release of proteins. For this purpose, ferrogels composed of PVA and magnetite (iron oxide: Fe3O4) NPs of different characteristics and sizes were synthesized by two different routes: by in-situ precipitation of iron oxides and by adding NPs coated by chitosan. The obtained biomaterials were tested for the adsorption of bovine serum albumin (BSA), which was selected as model protein.
