## Abstract Hyaluronan (HA)โbased biomaterials are of interest for bone and cartilage tissue engineering because HA plays an important role in orthopedic tissue development, function, and repair. The goal of this project was to develop a biomaterial that incorporated the constituents of both a hydr
Cells, scaffolds and growth factors are three main components of a tissue-engineered construct. Collagen type I, a major protein of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in mammals, is a suitable scaffold material for regeneration. Another important constituent of the ECM, hyaluronic acid (hyaluronan, HA),
This paper describes the development of a new crosslinked poly(methyl methacrylateacrylic acid) copolymer for potential applications in bone implants. This copolymer, comprising hydrophobic and hydrophilic components, has been designed to provide small amounts of controllable swelling strains at sat
