Fluorescence Imaging in Genipin Crosslinked Chitosan–Poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) Hydrogels
Recent research has identified genipin as a promising natural crosslinking agent for biocompatible hydrogels as genipin is significantly less cytotoxic than current synthetic crosslinking agents, such as glutaraldehyde. Conveniently, fluorophores can be produced when genipin crosslinks. In this study, fluorescence intensity measurements of genipin crosslinked chitosan-poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) hy...
متن کاملDiffusion of small molecular weight drugs in radiation-crosslinked poly(ethylene oxide) hydrogels
Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) hydrogels were formed by crosslinking of aqueous PEO solutions of IVI = 35 000, 900 000 and 5 000 000 in concentrations of 5-50% using T-irradiation with 3-10 Mrad. The hydrogels were characterized by equilibrium swelling experiments. The average interjunction molecular weight, 1VI c, varied from 3500 to 32 000, whereas the mesh size, ~:, varied from 120 to 550 ,~. Th...
متن کاملTransparent Low Molecular Weight Poly(Ethylene Glycol) Diacrylate-Based Hydrogels as Film Media for Photoswitchable Drugs
Hydrogels have shown a great potential as materials for drug delivery systems thanks to their usually excellent bio-compatibility and their ability to trap water-soluble organic molecules in a porous network. In this study, poly(ethylene glycol)-based hydrogels containing a model dye were synthesized by ultraviolet (UV-A) photopolymerization of low-molecular weight macro-monomers and the materi...
متن کاملPoly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(propylene oxide)-b-poly(ethylene oxide)-g-poly(vinyl pyrrolidone): synthesis and characterization.
Pluronic poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(propylene oxide)-b-poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO-PPO-PEO) block copolymers are grafted with poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) by free radical polymerization of vinyl pyrrolidone with simultaneous chain transfer to the Pluronic in dioxane. This modified polymer has both thermal responsiveness and remarkable capacity to interact with a wide variety of hydrophilic and hydrop...
متن کاملHydrogels from Chitosan and a Novel Copolymer Poly(N-Vinyl-2-Pyrrolidone-Co-Acrolein)
PVP, a synthetic polymer and chitosan, a natural polymer are biocompatible and have presented a great variety of interesting properties for cosmetic, biomedical, pharmaceutical and biotechnological applications, Many alternatives to improve the polymer propeties has been made as bleeding polymers, for example. In this work, two different techniques of hydrogel attainment were used: one from mix...
