Product Name
Porous Gelatin Methacryloyl(Porous GelMA)
Product Overview
Gelatin methacryloylated gelatin (GelMA) has been widely used in research fields such as cell 3D culture, tissue engineering, and bio-3D printing due to its biocompatibility and visible light curing. Although hydrogel also comes with its own pore structure inside, its pores are too small, which makes the internal nutrient transfer and cellular metabolic waste discharge when wrapping cells for 3D culture and bio-3D printing not smooth, and the dense pores hinder better cellular functionalization. In order to further improve the efficiency of material exchange between cells and the outside world within the hydrogel, and to provide more space for cell growth and proliferation, the Xianfeng team came up with high porosity GelMA hydrogel (porous GelMA). In order to obtain tens or even hundreds of micron pore structure, the conventional practice is to obtain by emulsion pore making, these processes have the disadvantages of poor stability and complicated operation. Porous methacryloylated gelatin, through the subversive design of material science, its use experience is no different from the conventional GelMA material, only need to dissolve, light curing can easily obtain hundreds of micron pore structure hydrogel, providing efficient material exchange channels for cells, but also provide space for cell proliferation, growth, can significantly improve the proliferation activity of cells.
