This work is aimed at developing a kappa-carrageenan (kCR) gel with increased methotrexate (MTX) content. β-Cyclodextrin (βCD), which is able to inclusion complex formation with MTX, has been used to increase the drug concentration in the hydrogel. The rheological behavior of the designed gels was i...
