Abstract
The disclosure provides a method of preparing a polymer scaffold including admixing a biotinylated reagent and a polymer to form a biotinylated polymer, subjecting the biotinylated polymer to conditions sufficient to form the polymer scaffold and optionally admixing the polymer scaffold with a streptavidin-modified biomolecule to form a biomolecule-modified polymer scaffold. The disclosure further provides a method of preparing a polymer scaffold including admixing a first click chemistry reagent and a poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) polymer to form a modified PLGA polymer, subjecting the modified PLGA polymer to conditions sufficient to form the polymer scaffold, and optionally admixing the polymer scaffold with a biomolecule modified to include a second click chemistry reagent that selectively reacts with the first click chemistry reagent, to form a biomolecule-modified polymer scaffold.
