Hydrogel are hydrophilic, three dimensional, and cross-linked polymer chain, which has property to absorb different fluids. They resemble body tissue with respect to their ability to absorb large amount of water. The property to absorb different types of the fluid makes hydrogel suitable for many medical applications. As human body consist of large amount of water, therefore hydrogels are highly biocompatible and can be used as carrier for many active ingredients. Being biodegradable, hydrogels are harmless as compared to other polymers. Hydrogels such as polysaccharides and polypeptides are of natural origin, whereas artificial hydrogels include N-isopropyl acrylamide and Jeffamine M-1000 acrylamide. Artificial hydrogels carries superior mechanical strength, longer shelf life, and larger capacity to absorb water.
