摘要

We developed a facile strategy to prepare an injectable drug-loaded hydrogel with chemical crosslinkages. A PCL-POEGM-PCL amphiphilic triblock copolymer was synthesized in "one pot" by a combination of polycondensation and ring-opening polymerization, which can disperse hydrophobic drugs in aqueous solution and be crosslinked by POEGMS under physiological conditions.
