Ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate monomers have been previously reported to stimulate the growth of certain caries-associated bacteria on the basis of turbidity measurements. To elucidate the detail of this effect, we examined the influence of resin monomers on the growth of Streptococcus

During the polymerization of multifunctional monomers for dental restorations, typical final double-bond conversions range from 55 to 75%. The low conversion results in a large amount of extractable monomer, reduced adhesion to the filler, and the potential for increased swelling.

Due to the great similarity to the natural extracellular matrix and minimally invasive surgeries, injectable hydrogels are appealing biomaterials in cartilage and bone tissue engineering. Nevertheless, undesirable mechanical properties and bioactivity greatly hamper their availability in clinic applications. Here, we
