Absorbent polymers or hydrogel polymer materials have an enhanced water retention
capacity and are widely used in agriculture and medicine. The controlled release of …

Hydrogels are three-dimensional hydrophilic polymeric networks, capable of absorbing
large quantities of water and biological fluids and simulating biological tissue when swollen …

Hydrogels are attractive materials for the controlled release of therapeutics because of their
capacity to embed biologically active agents in their water-swollen network. Recent …

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease causing
destruction of bone and cartilago articularis. Traditional treatment methods have many side …

Recent trends in scaffold design have focused on materials that can provide appropriate
guidance cues for particular cell types to modulate cell behavior. In this study highly aligned …

This review paper presents hydrogel-based devices for biomedical applications. The first
part of the paper gives a comprehensive, qualitative, theoretical overview of hydrogels' …

This review is an extensive evaluation and essential analysis of the design and formation of
hydrogels (HGs) for drug delivery. We review the fundamental principles of HGs (their …

Photocrosslinkable biomaterials are promising for tissue engineering applications due to
their capacity to be injected and form hydrogels in situ in a minimally invasive manner. Our …

Heavy metal ions such as Cd2+, Pb2+, Cu2+, Mg2+, and Hg2+ from industrial waste water
constitute a major cause of pollution for ground water sources. These ions are toxic to man …

Although rhBMP-2 has excellent ability to accelerate the repair of normal bone defects,
limitations of its application exist in the high cost and potential side effects. This study aimed …
