Hydrogel for Biomedical Research
Hydrogels have widely available synthetic or natural raw materials, as well as adjustable and controllable mechanical properties, which can be used in various industries. Especially, it is widely used in biomedicine, from drug loading and delivery to medical devices. With the continuous research and development of hydrogel technology, more and more hydrogel preparation methods and formula design appear, further expanding the application of hydrogel.
Hydrogel for Disease Treatment
As a new biomaterial scaffold, hydrogel exhibits excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability, properties of swelling, and stimuli-responsiveness. As a result, it has been widely used in various disease fields, such as cancer treatment, nerve injury repair, and wound healing.
Hydrogel for Tissue Engineering
Tissue engineering refers to the technology of combining cells and materials to construct tissues or organs in vitro or in vivo. Hydrogels are known for their excellent biomimetic properties and can be used as biomaterials in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
Hydrogel for Drug Delivery
The half-life of a drug in the body is an important factor in its effectiveness. The flexible designability of hydrogels makes them a preferred way to deliver drugs, especially some large molecules and non-polar molecules.
Hydrogel for Diagnostics
Hydrogel-based biosensors have great potential in detecting biochemicals, disease-causing proteins, and disease-specific genes, thereby providing valuable diagnostics for various medical conditions.
Hydrogel for Medical Devices
The flexibility of hydrogel design allows it not only to be used alone, but also plays an important role in the design and development of some medical devices, such as contact lenses, coating, and aesthetic medicine.
Hydrogel for Cell Culture
As a new 3D biomaterial, hydrogel can be designed to simulate the structure of extracellular matrix, which is suitable for the culture of a variety of cells. And according to the difference of hydrogel raw materials, the final application will also be slightly changed.
