Catechol-based bioadhesives generate hydrogen peroxide (H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>) as a byproduct during the curing process. H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> can have both beneficial and deleterious effects on biological systems depending on its concentration. To control the amount of H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> released from catechol-containing polyethylene glycol-based adhesive (PEG-DA), adhesive was formulated with silica nanoparticles (SiNP) prepared with increased porosity and acid treatment to i ...[more]
