Growth Factor Delivery Approaches in Hydrogels
Abstract
The controlled delivery of growth factors is a very challenging task because many different issues have to be addressed to develop the best suited system. A wide range of approaches have been employed for the controlled delivery of growth factors by hydrogels. Direct loading, electrostatic interaction, covalent binding, and the use of carriers are the main strategies presented in the literature. They are all detailed in the first part of this review. Recent work emphasizing biologically inspired strategies is also included. Also, both natural and synthetic materials are discussed. The second part comprises the methods to evaluate such delivery approaches. Both in vivo and in vitro techniques are presented. Improvements based on the discussed approaches may illustrate future paths toward the development of an ideal growth factor delivery system.

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.
