| Abstract | The application of enzymatic crosslinking and Diels–Alder (DA) click chemistry for hydrogel formation has recently bloomed, because of the efficient chemical bonding and the mild biological reaction conditions. In this study, an injectable hyaluronic acid/PEG (HA/PEG) hydrogel was successfully fabricated for the first time through integrating two cross-linking processes, including firstly enzymatic crosslinking and subsequent DA click chemistry. The enzymatic crosslinking resulted in a fast gelation of HA/PEG in 5 min, leading to the formation of an injectable material. In addition, the DA click reaction crosslinking made a hydrogel that has outstanding shape memory and anti-fatigue properties. The storage modulus and breakage strength of the hydrogels were close to 27 kPa and 109.4 kPa, respectively. The compressive strain could reach up to 81.9%. After 10 cycles of a loading and unloading test, the hydrogel still could be loaded by 80 kPa for 1 min and the corresponding deformation could be completely recovered in 1 min after unloading. The ATDC-5 cells were capsulated into the hydrogel bulk in situ and showed high metabolic viability and proliferation. All of these results suggest that the HA/PEG injectable hydrogel formed by integrating the two cross-linking processes has a great potential in cartilage tissue engineering. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
