摘要: Recombinantly-engineered elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs) possess many of the favourable attributes native elastin protein, making them an attractive option for designing biomaterials tissue-engineering applications. The focus this study was to synthesize and characterise bulk material properties two ELP sequences, ELP2 ELP4, cross-linked with lysine diisocyanate (LDI). distinct ELPs consist repeating hydrophobic hydrophilic cross-linking domains in a block co-polymer structure, however, differ by number respective domains. Depending on conditions sets reactions, different ELP-based materials were synthesized: gel-like relatively non-porous porous foam-like material, from both sequences. physical characterised scanning electron microscopy, compression testing, differential calorimetry analysis swelling analysis. found vary depending t...
