Chitosan coating mechanism. (A) Covalent mechanism: it is represented by the covalent bonds between the chitosan and a possible polymer (red bond). (B) Non-covalent mechanism: it is represented by the polar attraction forces between the cationic character on the chitosan chains and the anionic density on the nanoparticles.
