Abstract

See full text

There is provided a method for producing hydrogel microparticles with spherical shape and having a narrow-disperse or mono-disperse size distribution. At least one temporary crosslinker such as those of formula (I), (Ila)-(Ilf) and at least one permanent crosslinker comprising two or more vinyl groups, such as: divinylbenzene (DVB), ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA),diethyleneglycol dimethacrylate (DEGDMA), N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide (MBA), oligo/poly ethyleneglycol dimethyacrylate, 1,4-butanediol dimethacrylate, and 1,6-hexanediol dimethacrylate are combined in an organic solvent having a polarity suitable for a precipitation polymerization to occur. The precipitation polymerization is allowed to take place without the addition of surfactant and/or stabilizer and/or the formed microparticles comprise less than 1% surfactant and/or stabilizer. These microparticles may be further functionalized to obtain amine and carboxylic acid units by functionalizing the monomers of the temporary crosslinkers. The functionalized microparticles are used for cryopreserving cells or as a vaccine delivery platform.
