Injectable Hydrogels: A Review of Injectability Mechanisms and Biomedical Applications
Hydrogels have been used for biomedical applications in recent decades. They are a perfect candidate for regenerative medicine as they resemble the extracellular matrix of native tissues. In addition, their highly hydrated structure makes them a suitable choice for drug and other therapeutics delivery. Injectable hydrogels have increasingly gained attention due to their capability for homogeneo...
متن کاملPhysicochemical Characteristics and Biomedical Applications of Hydrogels: A Review
Hydrogels are introduced to modem medicine as novel materials suitable for a variety ofbiomedical applications. Studying hydrogels as novel biomaterials has become a fast-developingand exciting research field during the last two decades. These interesting biomaterials have found awide range of application including contact lenses, vehicles for drug delivery and scaffold in tissueengineering and...
متن کاملHydrogels for Biomedical Applications: Cellulose, Chitosan, and Protein/Peptide Derivatives
Hydrogels based on polysaccharide and protein natural polymers are of great interest in biomedical applications and more specifically for tissue regeneration and drug delivery. Cellulose, chitosan (a chitin derivative), and collagen are probably the most important components since they are the most abundant natural polymers on earth (cellulose and chitin) and in the human body (collagen). Pepti...
متن کاملChitosan for biomedical applications
Chitosan, a copolymer of glucosamine and N-acetyl glucosamine, is a polycationic, biocompatible and biodegradable polymer. In addition, chitosan has different functional groups that can be modified with a wide array of ligands. Because of its unique physicochemical properties, chitosan has great potential in a range of biomedical applications, including tissue engineering, non-viral gene delive...
