Abstract
The present invention provides a cell adhesion matrix having poly(vinyl alcohol) chains crosslinked via carboxy phenyl boronic acid crosslinkers. The cell adhesion matrix can also include a molecular recognition element bound to the poly(vinyl alcohol) chains via a carboxy phenyl boronic acid group, as well as including cells. The present invention also provides a method for making and de-gelling the cell adhesion matrix.
