Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present disclosure relates to a microgel composition comprising collagen and hyaluronic acid and a method of preparing the same. The microgel according to an embodiment is composed of natural biocompatible substances and is non-toxic and has high mechanical stability or long persistence, and thus can be effectively used in a microgel composition, a three-dimensional scaffold composition, and a tissue-engineering scaffold.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A microgel composition comprising 10% (w/v) of collagen and 2.5% (w/v) to 5% (w/v) of hyaluronic acid, wherein the composition has a zeta potential of −50 mV to −30 mV, wherein the composition has a pH of 4 to 11, and wherein the microgel is in the form of a nonwoven fabric; a woven fabric; a knitted fabric; a fiber bundle; a cylinder including a fiber bundle and a tube into which the fiber bundle is inserted; or a combination of two or more thereof. 2. The microgel composition of claim 1 , wherein the microgel has a size of 10 μm to 250 μm. 3. The microgel composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is a cell-laden microgel. 4. The microgel composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition does not comprise a chemical crosslinking agent. 5. A three-dimensional scaffold comprising 10% (w/v) of collagen and 2.5% (w/v) to 5% (w/v) of hyaluronic acid, wherein the scaffold has a zeta potential of −50 mV to −30 mV, and wherein the scaffold is in the form of a nonwoven fabric; a woven fabric; a knitted fabric; a fiber bundle; a cylinder including a fiber bundle and a tube into which the fiber bundle is inserted; or a combination of two or more thereof. 6. A scaffold for tissue engineering, comprising 10% (w/v) of collagen and 2.5% (w/v) to 5% (w/v) of hyaluronic acid, wherein the scaffold has a zeta potential of −50 mV to −30 mV, and wherein the scaffold is in the form of a nonwoven fabric; a woven fabric; a knitted fabric; a fiber bundle; a cylinder including a fiber bundle and a tube into which the fiber bundle is inserted; or a combination of two or more thereof. 7. A method of preparing a microgel composition, the method comprising: forming an electrostatic collagen-hyaluronic acid complex by reacting 10% (w/v) of collagen and 2.5% (w/v) to 5% (w/v) of hyaluronic acid; preparing a dispersion of a microgel by breaking the collagen-hyaluronic acid complex; and adjusting pH level of the dispersion to 4-11, subjecting the dispersion of the microgel to natural sedimentation, wherein the composition has a zeta potential of −50 mV to −30 mV, and wherein the microgel is in the form of a nonwoven fabric; a woven fabric; a knitted fabric; a fiber bundle; a cylinder including a fiber bundle and a tube into which the fiber bundle is inserted; or a combination of two or more thereof. 8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the subjecting of the dispersion to natural sedimentation is performed in a temperature range of 20-30° C. for 12-36 hours.
