Hydrogel with chemical modification has been used for 3D printing in the biomedical field of cell and tissue-based regeneration because it provides a good cellular microenvironment and mechanical supportive ability. As a scaffold and a matrix, hydrogel itself has to be modified chemically and physically to form a β-sheet crosslinking structure for the strength of the biomaterials. These chemical modifications could affect the biological damage done to encapsulated cells or surrounding tissues due to unreacted chemical residues. Biological assessment, including assessment of the cytocompatibility of hydrogel in clinical trials, must involve testing with cytotoxicity, irritation, and sensitization. Here, we modified silk fibroin and glycidyl methacrylate (Silk-GMA) and evaluated the physical characterizations, residual chemical detection, and the biological effect of residual GMA depending on dialysis periods. Silk-GMA depending on each dialysis period had a typical β-sheet structure in the characterization analysis and residual GMA decreased from dialysis day 1. Moreover, cell proliferation and viability rate gradually increased; additionally, necrotic and apoptotic cells decreased from dialysis day 2. These results indicate that the dialysis periods during chemical modification of natural polymer are important for removing unreacted chemical residues and for the potential application of the manufacturing standardization for chemically modified hydrogel for the clinical transplantation for tissue engineering and biomedical applications.

Porous microspheres, copolymers: bis [4(2-hydroxy-3-methacryloyloxypropoxy)-phenysulfide (BES.DM) and glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) have been prepared by suspension-emulsion polymerization. The copolymer (BES.DM+GMA) including reactive epoxide rings was modified with three amines: butylenediamine (BDA), diethylenetriamine (DETA), triethylenetetramine (TETA). Next, attachment of HCO3- species to the primary amine groups took place.The prepared porous polymers were used as adsorbents in off-line SPE experiments. A mixture of phenol (PH), 2-chlorophenol (ChP), 2,4-dichlorophenol (DChP) and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TChP) as testing compounds was applied.Depending on the way of chemical modification, the prepared adsorbents possessed diverse sorption properties towards the testing compounds. Competition of the phenolic compounds for active sites presented on the polymer surface was observed. The most effective in water purification process were polymers possessing both amine and bicarbonate groups. The best recovery results were obtained for 2,4-dichlorophenol.

AbstractSilicon-based polymers with σconjugated electrons have specific properties; photoreactivity for microlithography and photoconductivity for hole transport materials. To explore the possibility of combining these two properties to develop photoresists with electronic transport capability, photoconductivity of polysilanes is investigated in connection with their photoinduced chemical modification. Increase in photocurrent is observed accompanying photoreaction of poly(dimethylsilane) vacuum deposited films. This increase is found to be greatly enhanced in oxygen atmosphere. Such changes of photocurrent can be explained by charge transfer to electron acceptors from Si dangling bonds postulated to be formed during photoreaction.
