  2. 1. Synthesis and Characterization of Self-Assembling Low Molecular Weight Copolymers for Bioengineering Applications

    Author : Jenny Fagerland; Anna Finne-Wistrand; Tim Bowden; Natalia Andronova; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cooligomers; bioengineerng applications; polymer synthesis;

    Abstract : The constant need for improved biomedical materials and the interest in producing materials with similar properties to the extracellular matrix in different tissues has resulted in increasing interest in research on hydrogels. Over the last decade self-assembling copolymers have been of particular interest since they form hydrogels in response to external stimuli such as temperature. READ MORE

  4. 2. Synthesis of degradable aliphatic polyesters: strategies to tailor the polymer microstructure

    Author : Jenny Fagerland; Anna Finne-Wistrand; David Kaplan; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymer synthesis; enzymatic synthesis; degradable polyesters; peptides; scaffolds; Chemical Engineering; Kemiteknik;

    Abstract : Key factors for successful tissue engineering are the synthesis and design of the scaffold materials. Aliphatic polyesters have been studied and often used as scaffold materials for tissue engineering. However, their lack of biological cues and degradation under high-temperature processing (e.g. READ MORE
