A multi-arm poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG) Succinimidyl Glutarate is mixed with a biocompatible, synthetic, nucleophilic polymer component essentially free of human or bovine albumin and other biological molecules, containing, e.g., a polypeptide moiety having a number of active surface lysines of at least twenty (20) per 5000 M/W, which can also be blended with a multi-arm poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG) Amine. The mixture forms a synthetic hydrogel composition. The synthetic hydrogel composition can be applied by topically spraying the synthetic hydrogel composition onto a targeted wound site to promote wound healing. |
