Abstract

Cryogels are interconnected
macroporous materials, which are synthesized under semi-frozen conditions. They
can be either produced as pure polymeric or composite, that can find a variety
of applications in several research field. The excellent features of composite
cryogels such as, biocompatibility, physical resistance and sensitivity, making
them extremely suitable for biomedical applications. They commonly take place
in therapeutic, diagnostic and pharmaceutical applications in the field
biomedical research. This review focuses on the biomedical applications of
composite cryogels, particularly in the field of tissue engineering, drug
delivery systems and protein diagnosis.

Keywords
