This study describes the development of scaffolds based on carboxyethyl chitosan (CEC) and different oxidized cashew gums (CGOx) for tissue engineering (TE) applications. After the physico-chemical characterizations of CEC and CGOx (oxidation degree of 20, 35 and 50%), these macromolecules were used for producing the CGOx-CEC hydrogels through a Schiff base reaction, in the absence of any crosslinking agent. The CGOx-CEC scaffolds obtained after a freeze-drying process were characterized for their morphology, mechanical properties, swelling ability, degradation, and porosity.
