BIODEGRADABLE BIOSYNTHETIC SCAFFOLD MATERIALS FOR CARDIAC TISSUE ENGINEERING

摘要

A hydrogel scaffold material for cardiac tissue engineering comprising a cross linked hydrogel of i) poly (propylene fumarate -co-ethylene glycol) (CT-PPF-PEG) or poly (propylene fumarate-co-ethylene glycol-co-caprolactone) (CT-PPF-PEG-PCL) ii) a compound selected from vinyl monomer acrylamide, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, 2-aminoethylene methacrylate, n-vinyl pyrrolidone and iii) an alkali alginate said hydrogel having a molecular weight between the cross links, of 115-130.
