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

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
