This volume is dedicated to Marine polysaccharides used as antibacterial, antiviral, antioxidant, anti-inflammation, bioremediations, etc. The book includes 14 chapters contributed by experts around the world; the chapters are categorized into three sections: Marine Polysaccharides and Agriculture, Marine Polysaccharides and Biological Activities, and Marine Polysaccharides and Industries. Marine organisms have been under research for the last decades as a source for different active compounds with various biological activities and application in agriculture, pharmacy, medicine, environment, and industries. During the last three decades, several important factors that control the production of phytoplankton polysaccharides have been identified such as chemical concentrations, temperature, light, etc. Preface 1 Chitosan as Source for Pesticide Formulations 2 Chitosan in Agriculture: A New Challenge for Managing Plant Disease 3 Chitosan from Marine Crustaceans: Production, Characterization and Applications 4 Alginate and Sericin: Environmental and Pharmaceutical Applications 5 Chitosan, Chitosan Derivatives and their Biomedical Applications 6 Chitosan: Strategies to Increase and Modulate Drug Release Rate 7 Marine Polysaccharides as Multifunctional Pharmaceutical Excipients 8 Speculations on the Use of Marine Polysaccharides as Scaffolds for Artificial Nerve ‘Side-’Grafts 9 Marine Polysaccharides in Medicine 10 Applications of Chitosan in Wastewater Treatment 11 Flow Properties of Lambda Carrageenan in Aqueous Systems 12 Chitosan-Based Sustainable Textile Technology: Process, Mechanism, Innovation, and Safety 13 Chitosan-Based Thermosensitive Materials 14 Chitosan and Phthaloylated Chitosan in Electrochemical Devices
