• Polyethylene glycol (PEG): a versatile polymer for pharmaceutical applications (2016, unknown): “Stiff gels with elasticity of ~1–10 kPa mimic the physiological stiffness of glial cells.[137] This PEG hydrogel mimics the brain and is used as a phantom in magnetic resonance imaging.”
• Reinforcement of hydrogels using three-dimensionally printed microfibres (2015, unknown): “However, this generally compromises the biological performance of the hydrogel 2,3 or requires a long and costly period of pre-culture.”
