Synthesis of hyaluronic acid hydrogels by crosslinking the mixture of high-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid and low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid with 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether

High molecular weight hyaluronic acid (HMW-HA) and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid (LMW-HA) were mixed at different ratios and cross-linked with 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDDE) to prepare five hyaluronic acid hydrogels A–E. Enzymolysis stability, swelling rate, crosslinking degree, rheol...

Sumario:High molecular weight hyaluronic acid (HMW-HA) and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid (LMW-HA) were mixed at different ratios and cross-linked with 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether (BDDE) to prepare five hyaluronic acid hydrogels A–E. Enzymolysis stability, swelling rate, crosslinking degree, rheological characteristics, BDDE residual rate, surface microstructure, and cytotoxicity of different hydrogels were investigated. The results showed that hydrogel B obtained by 10% HA (w/v, HMW-HA and LMW-HA having a mass ratio of 4 : 1) crosslinking with 1% BDDE (v/v) had stronger in vitro anti-degradation ability, better mechanical properties and lower cytotoxicity than those prepared by mixing in different proportions. Hydrogel B has potential applications in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering.
