Abstract

Antibacterial hydrogel has received extensive attention in soft tissue repair, especially preventing infections those associated with impaired wound healing. However, it is challenging in developing an inherent antibacterial hydrogel integrating with excellent cell affinity and superior mechanical properties. Inspired by the mussel adhesion chemistry, a contact‐active antibacterial hydrogel is proposed by copolymerization of methacrylamide dopamine (MADA) and 2‐(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate and forming an interpenetrated network with quaternized chitosan. The reactive catechol groups of MADA endow the hydrogel with contact intensified bactericidal activity, because it increases the exposure of bacterial cells to the positively charged groups of the hydrogel and strengthens the bactericidal effect. MADA also maintains the good adhesion of fibroblasts to the hydrogel. Moreover, the hybrid chemical and physical cross‐links inner the hydrogel network makes the hydrogel strong and tough with good recoverability. In vitro and in vivo tests demonstrate that this tough and contact‐active antibacterial hydrogel is a promising material to fulfill the dual functions of promoting tissue regeneration and preventing bacterial infection for wound‐healing applications.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
