Swelling properties of gamma irradiated starch based hydrogel dressing

Sago starch is used as biopolymer and biocompatible to the human skin. The hydrogel is prepared by mixing the solution of sago starch (SS) with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) solution and finally this solution is subjected to the gamma irradiation. The effect of sago starch and gamma irradiated doses on sw...
