| Abstract | Temperature-responsive and crosslinkable poly(ether-urethane)s (PEUs), which may be useful for tissue adhesives, are prepared through the polymerization of poly(ethylene glycol)s (PEG), mono-p-methoxybenzylidene-pentaerythritol and hexamethylene diisocyanate, the hydrolysis of acetals in PEUs and the grafting of methacrylate (MA) to PEUs. After gelating the PEU solution in a specific temperature range via a rapid reversible temperature response, the physical hydrogel is further self-cross-linked or cross-linked with PEG diacrylate (PEGDA) by photocuring. These PEU-MA gels are characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and size exclusion chromatography (SEC). The sol–gel phase transitions through temperature response and chemical crosslinking are investigated by rheology testing. It is found that the swelling ratio, degradation, adhesive strength and mechanical properties of the PEU-MA gels are affected by the ratio of hydrophilic and hydrophobic segments in PEU and the grafting ratios of MA in PEU-MA gels. The adhesive strengths on tissues with PEU-MA are stronger than those on glass and PBT. The adhesion of PEU-MA on artificial dura mater can be maintained for over one month, even when immersed in water. The good biocompatibility of the PEU-MA gels is demonstrated via cytotoxicity evaluation. As a result, these PEU-MA gels are promising candidates as tissue adhesives and drug-loading materials for soft tissue filling and regeneration. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
