General description
Poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PGEDA) is used for synthesising highly cross-linked hydrogels which are used as biomaterials in tissue engineering. These hydrogels are formed using non-cytotoxic photo initiators. PEG hydrogels can be easily covalently linked to bioactive proteins and peptides which in turn promote specific cell activity either on the surface or within the hydrogel.
Application
This homobifunctional PEG can be used in hydrogel applications; biocompatibilization; thiol-ene coupling; and other applications using cross-linked PEG networks.
