Photopolymerizable thiol-acrylate maleiated hyaluronic acid/thiol-terminated poly(ethylene glycol) hydrogels as potential in-situ formable scaffolds

Dopamine-Modified Hyaluronic Acid Hydrogel Adhesives with Fast-Forming and High Tissue Adhesion

“…As observed in Figure c, the storage modulus ( G ′) gradually increased, then surpassed loss modulus ( G ″), and finally reached a plateau. The point at G ′ = G ″ was defined as the gel point . It could be seen that gel point decreased with the increasing of NaIO 4 content, which indicated that availability of more crosslinking points were involved in the hydrogel formation to help the formation of a greater entangled network.…”

“…The point at G′ = G″ was defined as the gel point. 31 It could be seen that gel point decreased with the increasing of NaIO 4 content, which indicated that availability of more crosslinking points were involved in the hydrogel formation to help the formation of a greater entangled network. However, at fixed NaIO 4 content, there was not obviously decrease in gel time, suggesting that DS of catechol groups could not have a significant impact on gel-formation kinetics.…”

Thermosensitive alginate–gelatin–nitrogen-doped carbon dots scaffolds as potential injectable hydrogels for cartilage tissue engineering applications

“…[1][2][3] Hydrogels are one of the fundamental classes of biological materials used for the fabrication of scaffolds due to their comparable compositions and mechanical behavior to the extracellular matrix (ECM) of native cartilage tissues, high interaction with cells, and sufficient preparation of signals to maintain cell attachment, generation, and distinction. 4,5 Hydrogels are 3D networks of cross-linked hydrophilic polymer chains, which absorb an amount of water more than a thousand times their dry mass, creating a jelly form that mimics the stem-cell niche. They are classied as synthetic and natural polymer-based hydrogels depending on their sources of raw material.…”

Penta‐Hydroxy Flavones‐Based Photoinitiating Systems for Free Radical, Cationic, and Thiol‐Ene Polymerization upon Exposure to Mild Blue LEDs

“…[3][4][5][6] The investigation and development of novel photoinitiators being sensitive to visible light are boosting. [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] Apart from synthetic photoinitiators sensitive to visible light (e.g., naphthalimide dyes, pyrromethene dye, etc. [20,21] ), numerous natural dyes were published as effective photoinitiators due to their fascinating photochemical properties.…”
