We fabricate a new type of hybrid hydrogel by introducing a synthetic
hydrogel into a biological hydrogel which is directly obtained from an
animal body. The biological hydrogel has a well-developed structure
and relatively high mechanical strength, the synthetic hydrogel formed
in the biological hydrogel might have a microstructure different to normal
hydrogels. We anticipate that the combination of the two may offer a
substantial increase in mechanical strength of the hybrid hydrogel.

In this work, we studied the microstructure and the mechanical properties
of a biological gel—the mesogloea of an edible jellyfish Rhopilema e
sculenta Kishinouye (hereafter referred to as JF gel)—and fabricated the
hybrid hydrogels of the JF gel and synthetic gel using a radiation-induced
polymerization and crosslinking method.
