摘      要：Hydrogels with multifunctionalities,including sufficient bonding strength,injectability and self-healing capacity,responsive-adhesive ability,fault-tolerant and repeated tissue adhesion,are urgently demanded for invasive wound closure and wound healing.Motivated by the adhesive mechanism of mussel and brown algae,bioinspired dynamic bonds cross-linked multifunctional hydrogel adhesive is designed based on sodium alginate(SA),gelatin(GT)and protocatechualdehyde,with ferric ions added,for sutureless post-wound-closure.The dynamic hydrogel cross-linked through Schiff base bond,catechol-Fe coordinate bond and the strong interaction between GT with temperature-dependent phase transition and SA,endows the resulting hydrogel with sufficient mechanical and adhesive strength for efficient wound closure,injectability and self-healing capacity,and repeated closure of reopened wounds.Moreover,the temperature-dependent adhesive properties endowed mispositioning hydrogel to be removed/repositioned,which is conducive for the fault-tolerant adhesion of the hydrogel adhesives during surgery.Besides,the hydrogels present good biocompatibility,near-infrared-assisted photothermal antibacterial activity,antioxidation and repeated thermo-responsive reversible adhesion and good hemostatic effect.The in vivo incision closure evaluation demonstrated their capability to promote the post-wound-closure and wound healing of the incisions,indicating that the developed reversible adhesive hydrogel dressing could serve as versatile tissue sealant.
