A self-healing pH-responsive injectable zwitterionic hydrogel for the prevention of postoperative adhesions.
Postoperative adhesions remain a significant challenge in clinical surgical procedures. In this study, PGA-DMAPS-APBA was synthesized via free radical addition and amidation reactions of zwitterion [2-(methacryloyloxy) ethyl] dimethyl-(3-sulfopropyl) ammonium hydroxide (DMAPS), 3-aminophenylboronic acid (APBA), and pol...
