Applications of Hydrogels in Tissue Engineering

Given their physical properties, which cause them to resemble living tissues, hydrogels have long been used in the medical and pharmaceutical industries [Pg.133]

While most molecular gels have been made in organic solvents, molecular organogel by default is not compatible with the aqueous in vivo environment. This review therefore focuses mainly on apphcations of molecular hydrogel in tissue engineering, and readers are referred to a recent review on the apphcations of molecular organogel [30]. [Pg.135]


Nanofibrillar chitin hydrogels are biodegradable, biocompatible, and nontoxic, and thus show promise for biomedical applications. The protonation of amino groups on the surface of chitin allows its application in wound dressings due to the antimicrobial properties of cationic gels [130]. Polymeric fibers that mimic the structure and function of the extracellular matrix are also of interest in tissue engineering and cell culture. Chitin nanofibers can promote cell attachment and show potential as extracellular matrix mimics [29, 125]. [Pg.182]

Recent developments in the polyphosphazene chemistry have been re-viewed. The role of polyphosphazenes as biodegradable polymers as hydrogels for tissue engineering and as induced helical polymers has been discussed. Preparation and application of poly(thionyl phosphazenes) are discussed in two review chapters. ... [Pg.665]
