Comparative analysis of gelatin scaffolds crosslinked by genipin and silane coupling agent
چکیده انگلیسی
Scaffolds based on gelatin (G) are considered promising for tissue engineering, able to mimic the natural extracellular matrix. G drawback is its poor structural consistency in wet conditions. Therefore, crosslinking is necessary to fabricate stable G scaffolds. In this work, a comparative study between the performance of two different crosslinkers, genipin (GP) and γ-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTMS), is presented. Flat membranes by solvent casting and porous crosslinked scaffolds by freeze-drying were prepared. Infrared spectroscopy and thermal analysis were applied to confirm G chain crosslinking. Moreover, GP and GPTMS increased the stability of G in aqueous media and improved the mechanical properties. Crosslinking reduced the wettability, especially in the case of G_GPTMS samples, due to the introduction of hydrophobic siloxane chains. Both G_GP and G_GPTMS scaffolds supported MG-63 osteoblast-like cell adhesion and proliferation.
