Several critical aspects of cross-linked polyanhydrides made using thiol-ene polymerization are reported, in particular the erosion, release, and solution properties, along with their cytotoxicity toward fibroblast cells. The monomers used to synthesize these polyanhydrides were 4-pentenoic anhydride and pentaerythritol tetrakis(3-mercaptopropionate).

Statistical and block copolymers based on poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) and poly[oligo(ethylene glycol) methylether methacrylate] (POEGMEMA) were modified with 4-pentenoic anhydride or 4-oxo-4-(prop-2-ynyloxy)butanoic anhydride to generate polymers with pendant vinyl or acetylene, respectively. Subsequent thiol-ene or thiol-yne reaction with thioglycolic acid

We have developed biocompatible scaffolds that enable cell fate control with visible light. The scaffolds are based on synthetic collagen-like polypeptide, poly(prolyl-hydroxyprolyl-glycyl) {poly(Pro-Hyp-Gly)} which has been used for cosmetics and other healthcare applications. Bioactive peptides were conjugated to the scaffolds

Homopolymer and block copolymer bearing carbohydrate side chain functionality were obtained by grafting glucothiose onto alkene functional scaffolds via a thiol-ene click reaction and the resulting copolymer was used to form thermo-responsive micelles as a potential drug carrier.
