This study aimed to develop a new type of anti-adhesion agent to overcome the disadvantages of existing anti-adhesion agents. This novel derivative is an anti-adhesion agent that is easy to apply and which has high rates of retention. Chitosan is biocompatible with potential applications in medical materials including as an anti-adhesion agent. Visible light curable chitosan derivatives can be used to produce anti-adhesion agents of the biofilm type for application to the skin or organs using visible light.
