ABSTRACT:
A method for molecularly crosslinking amino acid-containing polymers by photoactivating chemical crosslinkers which have been combined with the polymers. Collagen crosslinked by this method can be used as a bioadhesive for sutureless closures of the skin and eye or as a superhydrated material for contact lenses, moist bandage contact lens, lens or corneal implant material, or as a drug delivery mechanism.
