MODIFIED MACROMOLECULES AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING THEREOF

摘要

Described herein are composites produced by reacting a first thiolated macromolecule with at least one compound having at least one thiol-reactive electrophilic functional group. The methods described herein permit the cross-linking of a variety of different thiolated macromolecules with one another. The composites described herein have a variety of biomedical and pharmaceutical applications, which are also described herein.
