which are able to swell notably when exposed to aqueous media by absorbing considerable
amounts of water. Besides being a constituent of living organisms, nowadays, there are
various fields hydrated polymers (e.g. polyvinyl alcohol, collagen, and starch) can be utilized
– in both biological and non-biological form. Classic examples of such applications are
human health and cosmetics (contact lenses, wound healing dressings and artificial
replacement tissues – skin, arterial grafts, cornea and spinal disc replacement), pharmacy
(drug delivery systems), bioengineering, food industry, agriculture etc. Also, hydrogels
can reversibly change their shape when being exposed to a temperature change.Workplace Institute of Scientific Instruments Contact Martina Šillerová, sillerova@ISIBrno.Cz, Tel.: 541 514 178 Year of Publishing 2019
