Abstract

Bioadhesives In article number 2202729, Seung-Woo Cho and co-workers demonstrate a pH-universal catechol-amine chemistry inspired by mussel adhesion in the natural marine environment. The dual-mode catechol tethering to hyaluronic acid via amide and secondary amine linkages enables robust crosslinking and tissue-adhesion of the hydrogel regardless of pH conditions, thereby allowing versatile biomedical applications.
