Manuscript Topics
Hydrogel is becoming a mature material for various biomedical applications due to its flexible character and its biocompatibility. It also has a similar biomimetic structure to extracellular matrix of tissues.
Recently, the development of injectable hydrogels has brought a new player to the game. Injectable hydrogels refer to a new type of hydrogels that can be injected into the target locations using syringes or catheters. Other than being easier to use, the injectable hydrogels play a complementary role and could achieve something the traditional hydrogels cannot do.
This special issue welcomes reports on all the emerging biomedical applications of injectable hydrogels. The applications include but are not limited to tissue engineering, wound healing, drug delivery, chemical therapy, detection, labeling, etc. The preparation methods and the development of new injectable hydrogels are also included in this special issue.
