PEPTIDE-CROSSLINKED BIOACTIVE POLYMERIC MATERIALS

摘要

A method for creating a peptide crosslinked bioactive polymeric material includes reacting a hydroxy-functionalized small molecule with a amino acid to form an amino acid functionalized monomer, reacting the amino acid functionalized monomer with a urea bond former to form a amino acid-based poly(ester urea), and reacting the amino acid-based poly(ester urea) with a peptide based crosslinker to form the peptide crosslinked bioactive polymeric material.
