“…8 For instance, poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA), poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG), poly(ethylene glycol)-diacrylate (PEGDA), polycaprolactone (PCL), poly(acryl amide)/ poly(acrylic acid), gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA), poly(propylene fumarate) (PPF), poly(oligo ethylene glycol methacrylate) (POEGMA), and poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) are the typical synthesized materials that have been widely adopted to produce tissue-engineering hydrogels. 7,8,65,69,72,75,76,134,181 These synthetic materials are often modified macromers that present elongated degradation rates and make tissue engineering more tunable. 182,183 For example, thio-b ester-modified PEGDA hydrogels provide tunable degradation rates without changing the network of the PEGDA hydrogel.…”
