In this work physical carrageenan/chitosan (Car/Chit) hydrogels are prepared by electrostatic complexation between the two oppositely charged polysaccharides. The hydrogels have storage moduli in the order of 5-10 kPa and swelling ratios in the order of 5000-6000 %. At conditions where both polysaccharides are highly charged (pH 5) the swelling ratios are lower than the ones at conditions of lower dissociation i.e., at pH 2 and 7 and the opposite trend is found for the storage modulus. Chit appears to act as a crosslinker for Car as
