The structure of the two COS was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR) and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). FTIR analyses of the COSs were recorded with KBr compressed pellets on a Nicolet 670 FT-IR Spectrometer. 1H NMR analyses were recorded on a Bruker AV II-400MHz spectrometer. The DD was calculated by 1H NMR according to equation (1), where “ACH3” and “AGlcNH−2,” respectively correspond to the integral of the N-acetyl proton signal and H-2 proton signal of GlcN units.

GelMA was synthesized using methods as depicted in Fig. 1b. Briefly, under constant magnetic stirring, the type-A gelatin was dissolved in 50 ml Dulbecco's phosphate buffered saline (DPBS) at 60 °C. All methacrylic anhydride was continuously added to the solution within 10 min, and excessive DPBS was poured in to cease the reaction after 3 h of reaction. Subsequently, to remove impurities, the reacted solution was dialyzed in distilled water for 7 days. Finally, the dialyzed solution was subjected to freeze-drying for 48 h to obtain porous modified gelatin (GelMA) which was stored at −20 °C for later use.
The degree of methacryloyl modification was assessed quantifiedly via the 1H NMR spectroscopy (Bruker AV II-400 MHz spectrometer) using the method described by Shirahama et al. [30 ]. In brief, the proton signal (d = 7.0–7.5 ppm), attributed to aromatic amino acids, was used as a reference in each spectrum. The NMR spectra were integrated over the 2.7–2.9 ppm range, near lysine amino acid, using proton signal from the methylene groups. The degree of substitution (DS) was calculated as following equation: DS%=(1PGelMAPgelatin)×100% where PGelMA and Pgelatin were the peak area of lysine methylene protons in GelMA and gelatin at around 3.0 ppm, respectively.

A series
of anionic polyurethanes were synthesized from l-lysine diisocyanate
(LDI), mPEG, cystine, CYSD, and PCL according to our previous report.45 (link) Briefly, pre-polymerization of LDI and PCL was
carried out in the presence of 0.1% stannous octoate catalyst and
under the protection of nitrogen at 60 °C for 1 h. The resulting
solution was cooled down to room temperature, after which the chain
extender CYSD and tripeptide were added to react at room temperature
for 1 h (for T0C50mE1900, the addition of 1,3-propanediol (PDO) is
needed to react at 80 °C for an extra 2 h). Subsequently, mPEG
as the terminated chain was added and reacted at 90 °C for 6
h. The final products were precipitated by diethyl ether and washed
at least three times, after which the products were dried under vacuum
at 50 °C for 2 days.
The polyurethanes were characterized
by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR), Fourier
transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and gel permeation chromatography
(GPC). 1H NMR spectra were obtained on a Bruker AV II-400
MHz spectrometer, using dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO-d6) as a solvent. FTIR spectroscopy was performed by a
Nicolet 6700 FTIR spectrometer using the KBr tablet method. GPC was
examined on Waters-1515; the mobile phase was N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF)/50 mM LiBr with a flow rate of
1 mL/min at 40 °C.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
