Hydrogel Based Drug Delivery System Market

Hydrogels are referred as natural or synthetic polymer materials that exhibit very versatile physical and biological properties. These polymers were first used as biological materials in 1960. Based on the source, the hydrogel can be obtained from natural sources or are synthetic in origin. The natural hydrogel include silk fibroin, alginate, chitosan, collagen, and hyaluronic acid. However, these natural hydrogels have few limitations such as they involve batch-to-batch variation leading to inconsistency in the product. Hence, they are often combined with synthetic hydrogels for creating a composite polymer.

Hydrogels are often used as drug delivery systems owing to its high compatibility with living tissues and property to preserve embedded proteins. Hydrogel-based drug delivery system acts as controlled drug delivery systems for delivering a certain drug such as antibiotics for a predefined duration of time. The other applications of hydrogel in medical sciences include replacement, restoration of anatomic structures, filtering wastewater, making contact lenses, and as pH sensors among others.

Market Dynamics

The growing research and development activities for using hydrogel-based drug delivery system for treating various injuries such as spinal cord injuries are contributing to the growth of hydrogel-based drug delivery system market. For instance, in January 2021, University of Arkansas biomedical engineering researcher was awarded a grant of US$100,000 from the PhRMA Foundation, an organisation that offers research grants; for developing the hydrogel-based drug delivery method for treating spinal cord injuries. The process involves embedding the stem cells in the matrix hydrogels, which facilitates better cell survival and hence can perform regenerative action for a longer duration.
