The effect of genipin crosslinking on the micro- and nano- structure of collagen hydrogels
Our study is about modifying three-dimensional (3D) collagen hydrogels with a genipin compound. Specifically, the study set out to answer a question if genipin crosslinking modifies the nanoand microstructure of collagen and to establish for the first time a combination of methods to follow this process in-situ and in real time. We examined the genipin cross-linked collagen hydrogels with one-p...
متن کاملEffect of genipin crosslinking on the optical spectral properties and structures of collagen hydrogels.
Genipin, a natural cross-linking reagent extracted from the fruits of Gardenia jasminoides, can be effectively employed in tissue engineering applications due to its low cytotoxicity and high biocompatibility. The cross-linking of collagen hydrogels with genipin was followed with one-photon fluorescence spectroscopy, second harmonic generation, fluorescence and transmission electron microscopy....
متن کاملEffects of Genipin on Decellularized Porcine Cartilage
This research aims to develop an alternative method to osteochondral articular transfer using decellularized, crosslinked porcine osteochondral xenografts (OCXGs). Crosslinking collagenous tissue results in greater mechanical strength, more resistance to enzymatic degradation, and reduced immunogenicity. This study used genipin, a chemical substance from the Gardenia jasminoides Ellis fruit. Ge...
متن کاملCollagen Crosslinking for Keratoconus
In this issue of JOVR, Derakhshan and co-authors 1 describe the results of crosslinking for patients with early keratoconus. Collagen crosslinking is a recently described technique of corneal tissue strengthening using riboflavin as a photosensitizer and ultraviolet A (UVA) radiation to promote the formation of intra-and interfibrillar covalent bonds by photosensitized oxidation. 2 To date, it ...
