Performance of an in situ formed bioactive hydrogel dressing from a PEG-based hyperbranched multifunctional copolymer
TL;DR: An injectable hybrid hydrogel dressing system was prepared from a polyethylene glycol (PEG)-based thermoresponsive hyperbranched multiacrylate functional copolymer and thiol-modified hyaluronic acid in combination with adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and found that long-term cell viability could be achieved for both in vitro (21days) and in vivo studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Poly(ethylene glycol)-Based Hyperbranched Polymer from RAFT and Its Application as a Silver-Sulfadiazine-Loaded Antibacterial Hydrogel in Wound Care
Sean McMahon,Robert Kennedy,Patrick Duffy,Jeddah Marie Vasquez,J. Gerard Wall,Hongyun Tai,Wenxin Wang +6 more
TL;DR: In vitro toxicology evaluations demonstrated that this hydrogel-with low concentrations of encapsulated SSD-supported the survival of embedded human adipose derived stem cells (hADSCs) and inhibited growth of the aforementioned pathogens.
Journal ArticleDOI
In situ formed hybrid hydrogels from PEG based multifunctional hyperbranched copolymers: a RAFT approach
Robert Kennedy,Robert Kennedy,Waqar Hassan,Anna Tochwin,Tianyu Zhao,Yixiao Dong,Qiang Wang,Hongyun Tai,Wenxin Wang +8 more
TL;DR: Polyethylene glycol based multifunctional hyperbranched copolymers with a high degree of vinyl functional groups were developed using RAFT polymerisation for in situ crosslinkable hybrid injectable hydrogels via “click” type reactions for the delivery of human adipose derived stem cells.
