Abstract
A bioscaffolding can be formed from a mixture of gel components of different gelation systems. For example, a bioscaffolding can be formed by mixing at least two different components of at least two different two-component gelation systems to form a first mixture and by mixing at least two different components (other than the components that make up the first mixture) of the at least two different two-component gelation systems to form a second mixture. A treatment agent, such as a cell type or a growth factor, can be added to either the first mixture or the second mixture. In some embodiments, the treatment agent is not added to either mixture. The first mixture can be co-injected with the second mixture to form a bioscaffolding in an infarct region for treatment thereof.
