چکیده

Linear and star-shaped, hydroxy-terminated polyethylene glycol (PEG) and 1,3-trimethylene carbonate (TMC)-based oligomers were functionalized by esterification with fumaric acid monoethyl ester (FAME) in the presence of N,N-dicyclohexyl carbodiimide (DCC) and 4dimethylamino pyridine (DMAP) at room temperature. Networks, designed to release only nontoxic degradation products, were obtained by UV irradiation of the macromers using 2,2-dimethoxy-2-phenylacetophenone (DMPA) as photo-initiator. The swelling properties of the hydrogels in water largely depend on the composition and architecture of the macromers, as well as on the temperature.

Photo-crosslinked networks prepared from fumaric acid monoethyl ester-functionalized poly(D,L-lactic acid) oligomers and N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone for the controlled and sustained release of proteins.

Photo-crosslinked networks were prepared from fumaric acid monoethyl ester-functionalized poly(D,L-lactic acid) oligomers and N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone. Two model proteins, lysozyme and albumin, were incorporated into the network films as solid particles and their release behavior was studied. By varying the NVP content and macromer molecular weight the degradation behavior and protein release prof...

Engineering nanoscopic hydrogels via photo-crosslinking salt-induced polymer assembly for targeted drug delivery.

We report the preparation of biodegradable nanoscopic hydrogels and their application for targeted drug delivery. The nanogel is synthesized in a template-free method by photo-crosslinking salt-induced polymer assemblies. With convenient incorporation of targeted lactosyl moieties, the nanogels efficiently deliver doxorubicin to HepG2 cells through receptor-mediated internalization.

Study of different methods to induce crosslinking of polyacrylamide for agriculture process

The present study describes two different methods for the preparation of superabsorbent polyacrylamide (PAAm) hydrogels for application in farming of sandy soil. The two methods were employed to induce the crosslinking of the polymer matrix. In the first method a PAAm paste was exposed to gamma rays, while in the second method the polymer was thermally treated in the solid phase. Crosslinked PA...
