Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of biomaterials technology, and more specifically, relates to a double cross-linked network material, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] With an aging population and rising prevalence of chronic diseases, the global wound care market is experiencing significant growth, particularly with an increasing demand for advanced functional dressings. Traditional wound dressings (such as gauze and sponges) suffer from poor moisture retention, easy adhesion to the wound leading to secondary damage, and the need for frequent changes. Hydrogel materials, due to their high water content, three-dimensional network structure, and excellent biocompatibility, are widely considered one of the ideal dressing candidates. They can provide a moist healing environment, absorb wound exudate, and promote cell migration and proliferation.
[0003] Keratin is a natural protein widely found in natural biomass such as hair and feathers, thus exhibiting extremely low immunogenicity and excellent biocompatibility, and does not induce severe immune rejection. Simultaneously, keratin scaffolds can mimic the structure of the natural extracellular matrix, providing physical support and biochemical signals to cells, guiding orderly cell growth and tissue remodeling. However, current hydrogel materials based on keratin and cross-linking agents suffer from insufficient mechanical properties and poor biocompatibility. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a double-crosslinked network material, its preparation method, and its application. This invention utilizes natural biomass raw materials (keratin, dextran) and biocompatible molecules (dopamine) to improve the mechanical properties and biocompatibility of the material through the synergistic effect of double crosslinking, thereby meeting the needs of the biomedical field.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, a first aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing a double-crosslinked network material, the method comprising: (1) Keratin solution was contacted and reacted with aldehyde-modified dextran aqueous solution to obtain a preliminary cross-linked network; (2) The preliminary cross-linked network and dopamine solution are mixed and kept warm to obtain a double cross-linked network material.
[0006] In this invention, the chemical cross-linking of keratin and aldehyde-modified dextran involves a Schiff base reaction to form an imine bond between the primary amino group of keratin and the aldehyde group of aldehyde-modified dextran, resulting in a preliminary cross-linking network. Specifically, the primary amino group (-NH2) of keratin undergoes a Schiff base reaction with the aldehyde group (-CHO) of aldehyde-modified dextran: -NH2 + -CHO → -N=CH- (imine bond), and the system gradually forms a gel-like preliminary cross-linking network.
[0007] Construction of double crosslinked networks: Dopamine is added to the preliminary crosslinked network system, and hydrogen bonds are formed between dopamine molecules and groups in the network to obtain double crosslinked network materials.
[0008] In this invention, the catechol groups of dopamine molecules form strong hydrogen bonds with the amino groups of keratin and the hydroxyl groups of aldehyde-modified dextran in the network. At the same time, hydrogen bonds can also be formed between dopamine molecules, ultimately resulting in a uniform and elastic double-crosslinked network material.

Centrifuge at 4000 r / min for 15 min, take the supernatant, add 3 times the volume of anhydrous ethanol, let stand for 2 h, and then centrifuge to collect the precipitate.
