Abstract
This chapter explores the diverse and promising properties of biopolymeric in situ hydrogel-based biomaterials. These versatile biomaterials offer distinct advantages, such as biocompatibility, tunable mechanical characteristics, controlled drug delivery capabilities, and their suitability for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. A comprehensive understanding of these properties is essential for harnessing the full potential of these hydrogels in cutting-edge biomedical applications.
