Effect of steam sterilisation on physico-chemical properties of antibacterial covalently cross-linked ε-polylysine/hyaluronic acid hydrogels

Sterilisation of implantable biomaterials such as hydrogels remains a key step towards their clinical translation. Standard sterilisation methods can significantly alter hydrogels' physicochemical and biological performance. Previously, we developed composite hydrogels based on ε-polylysine (ε-...
