Overview

Description

Methacrylated gelatin (GelMA) is a double bond modified gelatin, which can be cross-linked and cured into a gel by UV and visible light under the action of a photoinitiator within 10s. GelMA combines the characteristics of natural and synthetic biomaterials, contains bioactive peptide sequences for cell adhesion and proliferation, has a three-dimensional structure suitable for cell growth and differentiation, excellent biocompatibility and cell response properties, and can be well the simulated extracellular matrix. In addition, GelMA has good thermosensitive gel properties and degradability, and its mechanical properties can be highly regulated by changing the degree of substitution through synthetic conditions, which can provide a variety of viscoelastic properties, and has been widely used in cell 3D culture, tissue engineering, and biological 3D printing. and other research fields.
