ABSTRACT
Injectable materials have attracted great attention in the manufacture of in situ forming hydrogels for biomedical applications. In this study, a facile method to prepare methacrylic anhydride (MA)-modified sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) as an injectable material for the fabrication of hydrogels with controllable properties is reported. The chemical structure of the series of MA-grafted CMC (CMCMAs) with different MA contents was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and the properties of CMCMAs were characterized. Then, the CMCMAs gel (CMCMAs-G) was fabricated by crosslinking of MA under blue light irradiation. The gelation performances, swelling behaviors, transmittance, surface porous structures and mechanical properties of CMCMAs-G can be controlled by varying the content of MA grafted on the CMC. The compressive strength of CMCMAs-G was measured by mechanical compressibility tests and up to 180 kPa. Furthermore, the in vitro cytocompatibility evaluation results suggest that the obtained CMCMAs-G exhibit good compatibility for cell proliferation. Hence, our strategy provides a facile approach for the preparation of light-sensitive and an injectable CMC-derived polymer to fabricate hydrogels for biomedical applications.
