| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we synthesized chitosan derivatives in order to develop thermally-removal hydrogel scaffolds under cell culture conditions. The polymer solution in water was quickly gelled at body temperature, and the formed hydrogels was very touch, seemed like plastics rather than hydrogels. However, the hydrogels could easily return to the solution by cooling at 4oC. These results clearly show the creation of the new material “polymeric solid materials which can dissolve by lowering temperature”.
