DOPA-Based poly(ester amide)s−A Tunable Biomimetic Approach for Surgical Adhesive Design

Abstract Novel biomimetic surgical adhesives were prepared in this work by the straightforward incorporation of L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) in poly(ester amide)s (PEAs). A library of DOPA-based PEAs (DOPA-PEAs) with varying compositions was successfully synthesized by sol...
