Gels for encapsulation of biological materials
Jeffrey A. Hubbell,Chandrashekhar P. Pathak,Amarpreet S. Sawhney,Neil P. Desai,Hill Jennifer L,Syed F. A. Hossainy +5 more
TL;DR: Water soluble macromers are modified by addition of free radical polymerizable groups, such as those containing a carbon-carbon double or triple bond, which can be polymerized under mild conditions to encapsulate tissues, cells, or biologically active materials as discussed by the authors.
