The effectiveness of poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)-gelatin superporous hydrogels (pHEMA-gelatin SPHs) was investigated for bone tissue engineering. The cell culture studies were performed with preosteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells. Dynamic culture conditions were provided using 100 ml spinner flask rotating at 50 rpm. According

Biocompatible magnetic nanocomposites of Fe-AuNPs and poly(2-hydroxylethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) were employed as a strategic protein immobilization platform. The hybrid magnetic nanocomposites were prepared by applying a 'grafting to' ATRP protocol. Fe-AuNPs having Fe core and Au shell were initially prepared
Narrowly dispersed hydrophilic molecularly imprinted polymer nanoparticles for efficient molecular recognition in real aqueous samples including river water, milk, and bovine serum.

We present a detailed picture to screen general ligands from simple chemicals for fabricating affinity surface to glycosidase enzymes. The surface was constructed by grafting poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) brush on SPR gold chip via surface-initiated atom-transfer radical polymerization, after which

To evaluate the performance of a sphere-templated poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (poly[HEMA]) tissue scaffold as a subcutaneous implant by comparing it with widely used high-density porous polyethylene (HDPPE) implant material. We implanted sphere-templated porous poly-(HEMA) and HDPPE disks into the dorsal subcutis
