The aim of this study was to fabricate celecoxib-loaded chitosan/guar gum (CS/GG) single (SC) and dual (DC) crosslinked hydrogel beads using the ionotropic gelation approach. The prepared formulations were evaluated for entrapment efficiency (EE%), loading efficiency (LE%), particle size and swellin...
