Özet

In this study, poly(2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate) [p(HEMA)] based hydrogels responsive to the pH, temperature and magnetic field were synthesized. The surface properties of p(HEMA) were improved by designing the stimuli-responsive hydrogels made of MAGA, NIPAAm and methacrylate-decorated magnetite nanoparticles as a function of pH-, thermo- and magnetic responsive cell culture surfaces. These materials were then modified an abundant extracellular matrix component, type I collagen, which has been considered as a biorecognition element to increase the applicability of hydrogels to cell viability. Based on results from scanning electronmicroscopy (SEM) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), stimuli-responsive hydrogel demonstrated improved non-porous structures and thermal stability with a high degree of cross-linking. Mechanical analyses of the hydrogels also showed that stimuli-responsive hydrogels are more elastomeric due to the polymeric chains and heterogeneous amorphous segments compared to plain hydrogels. Furthermore, surface modification of hydrogels with collagen provided better biocompatibility, which was confirmed with L929 fibroblast cell adhesion. Produced stimuli-responsive hydrogels modulated cellular viability by changing pH and magnetic field.
