Adoption of DNA-based Nanocomposite Hydrogels in Drug Delivery and Regeneration Therapy Applications comments

by Arghya Paul
Purpose The objective of this project was to deliver a unique malleable DNA-based hydrogel scaffold that can easily be injected by orthopedic surgeons, will set and integrate to the injured site after placement, and will be resorbed over time as it induces rapid in situ tissue regeneration via sustained delivery of osteoinductive drugs...
