Abstract
Different amounts of PEGDE were tested. The obtained scaffolds showed macroscopic pores and a tailorable swelling in water by controlling the crosslinking degree. Moreover, GCS-PEG scaffolds displayed a significant antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. In-vivo study using the chick embryo choriallantoic membrane resulted in a highly pronounced pro-angiogenic activity suggesting important tissue regeneration properties. Moreover, the employed materials are commercially available, no organic solvents are required and the scaling up is quite predictable.File in questo prodotto:
