Hydrogels have attracted significant interest in the context of tissue engineering due to their generally high cell compatibility and similar physical properties to native soft tissues...

Myofibroblasts have been implicated in scar tissue formation around biomaterials. When biomaterials are implanted as part of a tissue engineered construct, as a sensor, as a prosthetic or even as a drug delivery device, scar formation fibrosis around the biomaterial often interferes with the intended function...

Bone is a calcified structural tissue, present in all vertebrate life. Fundamentally, bone is a composite primarily composed of a highly substituted, poorly crystalline hydroxyapatite mineral phase and a primarily collagenous organic phase...

Conjugation of methoxy poly ethylene glycol mPEG onto the surface of therapeutic proteins has long been used to reduce their immunogenicity and increase their circulatory half-life...

Poly ethylene glycol PEG hydrogels have been widely studied as biomaterials, exploiting the hydrophilic, non-immunogenic, and non-cytotoxic properties of PEG...
