Elastic serum-albumin based hydrogels: mechanism of formation and application in cardiac tissue engineering†

Hydrogels are promising materials for mimicking the extra-cellular environment. Here, we present a simple methodology for the formation of a free-standing viscoelastic hydrogel from the abundant and low cost protein serum albumin. We show that the mechanical properties of the hydrogel exhibit a comp...
