The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Design properties of hydrogel tissue-engineering scaffolds (2011, background): “Most hydrogel materials are injectable [18,19] and can be formed via photopolymerization [20,21], which can be carried out under mild conditions in the presence of living cells.”
In situ Forming Injectable Hydrogels for Drug Delivery and Wound Repair (2018, neutral): “ronment (temperature [9,10], pH [10], ion concentration [10]), application of an external stimulus (light [11]), or affinity based self-”
Bioactive Modification of Poly(ethylene glycol) Hydrogels for Tissue Engineering (2010, methodology): “Triblock (ABA) polymers, PLA-PEG-PLA and PGA-PEG-PGA have been synthesized by ring opening polymerization, terminated with acrylates to generate PLA-PEG-PLA diacrylate and PGA-PEG-PGA diacrylate, respectively [29,36,37].”
Alginate-Based Biomaterials for Regenerative Medicine Applications (2013, background): “Free radical polymerization means the process of transforming linear polymer into a three-dimensional polymer network, which can be carried out at physiological pH and temperature with the appropriate chemical initiators, even in direct contact with drugs and cells [46–48].”
Scaffolding in tissue engineering: general approaches and tissue-specific considerations (2008, background): “Examples include developing composites with synthetic material [14] and crosslinking [20, 22, 55].”
