## Abstract Composite nanofibers of poly(caprolactone) (PCL) and gelatin crosslinked with genipin are prepared. The contact angles and mechanical properties of crosslinked PCLβgelatin nanofibers decrease as the gelatin content increases. The proliferation of myoblasts is higher in the crosslinked P

## Abstract In this study aminoβterminated poly(ethylene glycol) (PEGβdiamine) hydrogels were crosslinked with genipin, a chemical naturally derived from the gardenia fruit. Dissolution, swelling, and PEGβgenipin release properties were determined. The dissolution studies indicated that the hydroge
## Abstract Gelatin is one of the most commonly used biomaterials for creating cellular scaffolds due to its innocuous nature. In order to create stable gelatin hydrogels at physiological temperatures (37Β°C), chemical crosslinking agents such as glutaraldehyde are typically used. To circumvent pote
