Clinically available injectable hydrogels face technical challenges associated with swelling after injection and toxicity from unreacted constituents that impede their performance as surgical biomaterials To overcome these challenges we developed a system where chemical gelation was controlled by a conjugate Michael addition between thiol and acrylate in aqueous media with 97% monomer conversion and 6 wt % sol fraction The hydrogel exhibited syneresis on equilibration reducing to 59 7% of its initial volume It had mechanical properties similar to soft human tissue with an elastic modulus of 189 8 kPa Furthermore a mesh size of 69 nm resulted in sustained release of methylprednisolone sodium succinate with a loading efficiency of 2 mg/mL Functionalization with 50 mu g/mL of an oligolysine peptide resulted in attachment of freshly Isolated munne mesenchymal stem cells The rational design of the physical chemical and biological properties of the hydrogel makes It a potentially promising candidate for injectable applications (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved
