Physical properties of scaffolds intended for myocardial tissue regeneration were studied. Mechanical properties and degradation rates were evaluated for degradable scaffolds composed of poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (pHEMA) crosslinked with polycaprolactone (PCL). pHEMA copolymerized with tetraethylene glycol as a crosslinker served as a control. Fibroblast cells were used for cytotoxicit...

A poly(allylamine hydrochloride) carcinoembryonic antigen-imprinted hydrogel was synthesized using a water-soluble crosslinker, ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether, to investigate its viability for protein recognition. The imprinting factor of the imprinted hydrogel toward carcinoembryonic antigen was found to be approximately 5, while the imprinting factor of the imprinted hydrogel toward alpha-f...

Polycarboxylic acids are used as crosslinking agents with sodium hypophosphite which do not contain formaldehyde. In this study, breaking strength, elongation and tear strength of cotton(twill weave)fabric samples were determined by using twill fabrics, six different coating recipes, produced 100% cotton yarns. The results testing compared according to the fabric structure, recipes crosslinker ...
