Polyelectrolyte complex of Aloe vera, chitosan, and alginate produced fibroblast and lymphocyte viabilities and migration.

Chitosan, sodium alginate and gel of Aloe vera (Aloe barbadensis Miller) were employed for the preparation of polyelectrolyte complexes at pH 4 and 6. FT-IR spectroscopy analysis showed evidence on complexes formation and incorporation of the Aloe vera gel. The ζ potential determination of the polyelectrolyte complexes revealed the presence of surface charges in the range of -20 to -24 mV, which results in stable systems.
