Described is a crosslinked hydrogel for muscle stem cell culture and a preparation method and use thereof. The preparation method includes: dissolving collagen to prepare a solution and adding alginate and heparan sulfate proteoglycan and uniformly mixing with the collagen solution; adding ε-PL and TGase into the solution, uniformly stirring, and putting a slurry into a mold for crosslinking to obtain the hydrogel. The hydrogel is prepared by linking the collagen, the polylysine, and the heparan sulfate proteoglycan using the TGase to form covalent crosslinking, and forming a compact three-dimensional “egg box” network structure through a physical electrostatic interaction between the polylysine and the alginate.

The present disclosure discloses a crosslinked hydrogel for muscle stem cell culture and a preparation method and use thereof, and belongs to the technical field of biological food materials. The preparation method includes: dissolving collagen to prepare a solution and adding a certain amount of alginate and heparan sulfate proteoglycan for being uniformly mixed with the collagen solution; and adding ε-PL and TGase into the solution, uniformly stirring, and putting a slurry into a mold for crosslinking to obtain the hydrogel. The hydrogel is prepared by linking the collagen, the polylysine and the heparan sulfate proteoglycan using the TGase to form covalent crosslinking, and forming a compact three-dimensional “egg box” network structure through a physical electrostatic interaction between the polylysine and the alginate. The hydrogel can enhance the absorption to nutrient substances by the muscle stem cells and facilitate the growth of the muscle stem cells. The double-network crosslinked hydrogel has the potential to be a scaffold for the growth of muscle stem cells for cultured meat from stem cells.

A method and a mineral wool product include a multiple of lamellae, such as a sandwich panel core. The product includes a plurality of lamellae cut from a mineral wool web, and bonded together by applying an adhesive on the surfaces of two adjacent lamellae to form a web-like product, wherein the adhesive comprises at least one hydrocolloid.

A material with high oxygen permeability based on marine biological substance is disclosed. The material is obtained by compounding a silicon-containing substance with a silicon-oxy group and a bioactive substance selected from one or more of alginic acid, collagen, hyaluronic acid and a salt thereof, in the presence of a crosslinking agent. Also disclosed is a preparation method for the material including: mixing the silicon-containing substance and bioactive substance under acidic condition, and then crosslinking the mixture in the presence of a crosslinking agent. Also disclosed is a use of the material with high oxygen permeability or method thereof to prepare a corneal contact lens, corneal scaffold material, or corneal substitute. The material can satisfy the requirement of high oxygen permeability for extended wear and shows good wearing comfort. The material is biocompatible and has high safety performance.

The invention is directed to a method for producing a composite material comprising a biofabricated material and a secondary component. The secondary component may be a porous material, such as a sheet of paper, cellulose, or fabric that has been coated or otherwise contacted with the biofabricated material. The biofabricated material comprises a uniform network of crosslinked collagen fibrils and provides strength, elasticity and an aesthetic appearance to the composite material.
