متن کاملPhotolithographic patterning of polyethylene glycol hydrogels.
A simple, inexpensive photolithographic method for surface patterning deformable, solvated substrates is demonstrated using photoactive poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-diacrylate hydrogels as model substrates. Photolithographic masks were prepared by printing the desired patterns onto transparencies using a laser jet printer. Precursor solutions containing monoacryloyl-PEG-peptide and photoinitiato...
متن کاملBiodegradable and Photopolymerizable Hydrogels for Tissue Engineering Based on Poly(ethylene glycol) and Sebacic acid
Introduction Poly (ethylene glycol, PEG) based macromers have been widely used in tissue engineering applications as hydrogel type biomaterials, mainly due to their well known hydrophilicity and biocompatibility [1,2]. In addition, PEG based biodegradable hydrogels have been reported [3] and have drawn more attraction for tissue engineering scaffolds and/or drug delivery systems [4,5]. However,...
متن کاملPhotopolymerizable hydrogels for tissue engineering applications.
Photopolymerized hydrogels are being investigated for a number of tissue engineering applications because of the ability to form these materials in situ in a minimally invasive manner such as by injection. In addition, hydrogels, three-dimensional networks of hydrophilic polymers that are able to swell large amounts of water, can be made to resemble the physical characteristics of soft tissues....
متن کاملThree-dimensional photolithographic patterning of multiple bioactive ligands in poly(ethylene glycol) hydrogels†
The biomaterials community is faced with the challenge of imitating a vastly complex, physiological tissue environment. While cellular systems towards this end have been traditionally studied in two dimensions (2D), most cells require three-dimensional (3D) cues to produce a physiologically relevant response. Two-photon absorption laser scanning lithography (TPA-LSL) may be applied to photosens...
