Swelling characteristics and biocompatibility of ionic liquid based hydrogels for biomedical applications

Fig 6

Relative cell viability of A poly(AE-TMA); B poly(MAE-SO3); C poly(AE-SO3); D poly(MPC); E poly(VEtImBr); F poly(MAE-TMA); G poly(HPMAA); H poly(AAMPSO3H); I poly(TMA-VB); J poly(MAEDMA-SO3) and K poly(HEMA) was determined by the Cell Quanti Blue assay.

The relative cell vitality is determined by the ratio of the averaged fluorescence intensity in the hydrogel samples to the polystyrene negative control (100%). To support the results of the test, tetraethylthiuram disulfide (TEDT) at a concentration of 1х10−4 mol/L was used as the positive control, n ≥ 3.
