Journal ArticleDOI
50th Anniversary Perspective: Networks and Gels: Soft but Dynamic and Tough
TL;DR: A candid and critical overview of the current understanding of the relation between the structure and molecular architecture of polymer networks and their mechanical properties, restricting ourselves to soft networks made of flexible polymers and displaying entropic elasticity.

Hybrid Multicomponent Hydrogels for Tissue Engineering
Xinqiao Jia,Kristi L. Kiick +1 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes recent advances in developing multicomponent hybrid hydrogels by integrating modular and heterogeneous building blocks into well-defined, multifunctional hydrogel composites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dipole–Dipole and H‐Bonding Interactions Significantly Enhance the Multifaceted Mechanical Properties of Thermoresponsive Shape Memory Hydrogels
TL;DR: In this article, a combined dipole-dipole and hydrogen bonding interactions reinforced (DHIR) hydrogel is synthesized by one-step copolymerization of three feature monomers, namely acrylonitrile (AN, dipole monomer), acrylamide (AAm, H-bonding monomer) and 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid (AMPS, anionic monomer).
Journal ArticleDOI
Delivery of TGF-β1 and chondrocytes via injectable, biodegradable hydrogels for cartilage tissue engineering applications
TL;DR: Bioassay results indicate the potential of OPF hydrogel composites containing embedded chondrocytes and TGF-β1-loaded gelatin MPs as a novel strategy for cartilage tissue engineering.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unique milk protein based nanotubes: Food and nanotechnology meet
TL;DR: In this article, the authors review the stability and possible applications of α-lactalbumin nanotubes and show that the stability can be controlled by solvent conditions as well as by cross-linking with transglutaminase.

Solution Properties of Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)
M. Heskins,J. E. Guillet +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a lower critical solution temperature of poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide was found to be due to an entropy effect, which was attributed to the formation of nonpolar and intermolecular hydrogen bonds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polymeric Systems for Controlled Drug Release
TL;DR: Kevin Shakesheff investigates new methods of engineering polymer surfaces and the application of these engineered materials in drug delivery and tissue engineering.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alginate hydrogels as synthetic extracellular matrix materials
TL;DR: Alginate may prove to be an ideal material with which to confer specific cellular interactive properties, potentially allowing for the control of long-term gene expression of cells within these matrices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodegradable block copolymers as injectable drug-delivery systems
TL;DR: The synthesis of a thermosensitive, biodegradable hydrogel consisting of blocks of poly(ethylene oxide) and poly(L-lactic acid) and aqueous solutions of these copolymers exhibit temperature-dependent reversible gel–sol transitions.
