“Development of an Injectable, Adhesive-Antifouling Hydrogel to Prevent Postoperative Peritoneal Adhesions”

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38115543

An injectable, adhesive-antifouling bifunctional hydrogel has been developed to prevent postoperative peritoneal adhesions by reducing protein deposition, fibroblast adhesions, and bacterial attacks, and by modulating the macrophage phenotype to reduce inflammation.
