Abstract
The present invention provides a hydrogel composition, preferably for the treatment of wounds, comprising a hydrophilic co-polymer carrying multiple pendant anionic groups, wherein the polymer is derived from a first monomer and a second monomer, wherein both monomers have an octanohwater partition coefficient Log P value of less than 0, and, the Log P value of the first monomer is greater (more positive) than the second monomer. Preferably the difference between the Log P value for the two monomers is at least 0.1, preferably at least 0.2. The difference between the Log P value for the two monomers is preferably less than 2. The weight ratio (w/w) of the first monomer/second monomer in the hydrogel composition is preferably equal to or more than about 1. The pendant anionic groups may be sulphonyl groups, e.g. sulphonic acid groups or salts thereof. The anionic group in both first and second monomers may be in salt form and the counterion for both monomers is preferably the same.
