tissues  and  placed  to  repair  in  biological  environment.  The  studies  for  the  development  of  biomaterials  are  intended  to 
controlled drug release system that is used active in the pharmaceutical sector in recent years. Hydrogels are used as a supp ort 
material in controlled drug release system. These gels can swell without solve in the water, high hydrophilic, flexible, generally 
three-dimensional,  high  mechanic  stability,  porous  and  cross-linked  structures.  Principal  targets  of  the  works  in  biomedical 
medicine  are  minimizing  the  drug  dose,  leading  dosing  interval,  improving  the  quality  of  patient's  life  by  preventing  side 
effects. Controlled release systems are the best-response systems to these expectations. Since it requires the work more than ten 
years to develop a drug and to take the patent, pharmaceutical companies prefere to lead   lifetime and effectiveness of drugs 
instead  of  to  develop  new  drug  and  develope  controlled  release  formulations.  With  this  observation   it  is  proposed  that  to 
establish the most advantageous biomaterial can be used in release systems by characterization of pH EMA, Xanthan gam and 
p(HEMA-MMA) hydrogels used in the controlled release systems and with the comparison of the profiles</Abstract><Email>drhesnaural@gmail.com</Email><articletype>Research</articletype><volume>7</volume><issue>2</issue><year>2016</year><keyword>Biomaterial,pHEMA,p(HEMA-MMA), Controlled release,Hydrogel,Swelling behavior</keyword><AUTHORS>Pinar Erdem,Hesna Ural Kayalik,Sema Cetin</AUTHORS><afflication>Kirikkale University, Faculty of Science and Literature, Department of Biology, Kirikkale, Turkey,Ufuk University, Vocational School of Health Services, Ankara, Turkey,Kirikkale University, Faculty of Science and Literature, Department of Biology, Kirikkale, Turkey</afflication></Article></Articles>
