Soy Protein-Based Composite Hydrogels: Physico-Chemical Characterization and In Vitro Cytocompatibility

Abstract: Novel composite hydrogels based on the combination of alginate (Alg), soy protein isolate (SPI) and bioactive glass (BG) nanoparticles were developed for soft tissue engineering. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and normal human dermal fibroblasts were cultivated on hydrogels for 7, 14 and 21 days. Cell morphology was visualized using fluorescent staining at Days 7 and 14 for fibroblast cells and Days 14 and 21 for HUVEC. Metabolic activity of cells was analyzed using a colorimetric assay (water … Show more

“…In addition, Tansaz and colleagues (2018) prepared hydrogel based on soy protein isolate by adding different ratios of ISP and SA and investigated their physicochemical properties. In this study, they found that water uptake decreased with increasing soy protein isolate concentration, which related to the higher hydrophilicity of SA compared to ISP [48].…”

“…In the literature, soy gels with up to 20% protein content have been produced [ 76 ]. However, soy protein isolates are not easily dissolved in water unless the pH of the solvent is increased or decreased from a pH of 7 [ 77 ]. Accordingly, stock solutions of 12% soy protein and 15% pea protein were prepared and mixed with the three polysaccharides to obtain protein blended gels containing up to 6% soy or 7.5% pea protein.…”

“…Peaks at 1654 cm −1 and 1582 cm −1 were assigned to the stretching vibrations of peptide bonds in SPI. The absorption peaks at 1606 and 1416 cm −1 in the CMC were attributed to asymmetric and symmetric stretching vibrations of carboxylate salt, respectively [33]. In the case of SPC, the absorption peaks of amide I and amide II appeared at 1645 cm −1 and 1595 cm −1 , respectively.…”
