Abstract
In the current study, a novel chitosan-based composite, carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCHS)/oxidized carboxymethyl cellulose (OCMC) was fabricated and characterized. The composite film (CMCHS 1.5%w/v + OCMC 0.8%w/v) was more uniform and had better tensile properties, UV blocking, water vapor permeability, and antifungal properties than pure CMCHS film. Preservation experiments showed that the CMCHS/OCMC film was more efficient for retaining the quality decrease of strawberry during storage. By the end of 7 days' storage, the hardness, contents of organic acid, soluble solids, and reducing sugar of coated strawberries were increased by 35.1%, 38.5%, 14.1%, and 3.5%, respectively, compared to the control group; and the decay rate of strawberries in CMCHS/OCMC group also dropped to 36%, about 42% decrease than that in control, suggesting the promising application of CMCHS/OCMC composite in coating preservation.

Abstract
Full thickness burns in which the damage penetrates deep into the skin layers and reaches underneath the muscle, compel the need for more effective cure. Herein, cross-linked carboxymethyl-chitosan (CM-chitosan) films, prepared by Schiff base association with oxidized carboxymethyl cellulose (OCMC), are investigated regarding the wound healing capacity on full thickness burn injuries in vivo. Transparent thin CM-chitosan/OCMC films are obtained with tensile strength reaching 6.11 MPa, elongation at break above 27%, and water absorption more than 800%, which operates in favor of absorbing excess exudate and monitoring the wound status. Furthermore, the nonadherent CM-chitosan/OCMC films, with satisfactory biodegradability, cell, and tissue compatibility, are readily used to the wound sites and easily removed following therapy on scalded tissue so as to alleviate the suffering from burn. The films efficiently promote epithelial and dermal regeneration compared to the control, achieving 75.9% and 94.4% wound closure, respectively, after 14 and 27 days. More importantly, CM-chitosan/OCMC films accelerate wound healing with natural mechanisms which include controlling inflammatory response, reducing apoptosis, promoting fibroblast cell proliferation, and collagen formation. In conclusion, the CM-chitosan/OCMC films elevate the repair ratio of burn injuries and have great potential for facilitating the healing process on full-thickness exuding wounds.

Abstract
Cross-linked chitosan (CS) films with aldehyde groups obtained by oxidation of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) with NaIO4 were prepared using different molar ratios between the CHO groups from oxidized carboxymethyl cellulose (CMCOx) and NH2 groups from CS (from 0.25:1 to 2:1). Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy demonstrated the aldehyde groups' presence in the CMCOx. The maximum oxidation degree was 22.9%. In the hydrogel, the amino groups' conversion index value increased when the -CHO/-NH2 molar ratio, cross-linking temperature, and time increased, while the swelling degree values decreased. The hydrogel films were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and FTIR analysis. The curcumin encapsulation efficiency decreases from 56.74% to 16.88% when the cross-linking degree increases. The immobilized curcumin release efficiency (REf%) and skin membrane permeability were evaluated in vitro in two different pH solutions using a Franz diffusion cell, and it was found to decrease when the molar ratio -CH=O/NH2 increases. The curcumin REf% in the receptor compartment was higher at pH = 7.4 (18%- for the sample with a molar ratio of 0.25:1) than at pH = 5.5 (16.5%). The curcumin absorption in the skin membrane at pH = 5.5 (47%) was more intense than at pH = 7.4 (8.6%). The curcumin-loaded films' antioxidant activity was improved due to the CS presence.
