AB In this work, two chitosan samples from cuttlebone and squid pen are produced and characterized. We studied the formation of thermoresponsive hydrogels with β-glycerol phosphate and found proper formulations that form the hydrogels at 37 °C. Gel formation depended on the chitosan source being possible to produce the thermoresponsive hydrogels at chitosan concentration of 1% with cuttlebone chitosan but 1.5% was needed for squid pen. For the first time, these non-commercial chitosan sources have been used in combination with β-glycerol phosphate to prepare risperidone formulations for controlled drug delivery. Three types of formulations for risperidone-controlled release have been developed, in-situ gelling formulations, hydrogels and xerogels. The release profiles show that in-situ gelling formulations and particularly hydrogels allow an extended control release of risperidone while xerogels are not appropriate formulations for this end since risperidone was completely released in 48 h.
