Autoclave sterilization of tetra‐polyethylene glycol hydrogel biomaterials with β‐eliminative crosslinks
Sterilization of degradable polymeric biomaterials intended for injection presents a formidable challenge. Often, either the polymer backbone or labile crosslinks controlling degradation are adversely affected by commonly used sterilization methods. The purpose of this work was to develop an approac...
