Popis: | Double network (DN) hydrogels have shown favorable toughness and strength and been harnessed as scaffolding materials in tissue engineering, particularly, mineralized DN hydrogels may be potential scaffolds in bone tissue engineering. In this paper, DN hydrogels were fabricated from poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) and methacrylated poly(γ-glutamic acid) (mPGA). This DN hydrogel not only showed excellent mechanical properties but also good cytocompatibility as evidenced by the characterizations in terms of swelling ratio, mechanical strength/modulus, and cytotoxicity. Further, the DN hydrogels were subjected to mineralization in simulated body fluid, during which hydroxyapatite or analogues formed within the DN hydrogels; the DN hydrogels may be potentially harnessed as bone tissue engineering scaffold. |
