Schematic of islet encapsulation in the SP-hydrogel. (A) Saccharide-peptide polymers were generated through interfacial polymerization, then functionalized with either vinyl sulfone (VS) or cysteine (Cys). (B) Hydrogelation occurred by Michael addition in the presence of islets, when VS and Cys polymers were combined at equimolar ratio [2526].
