Bioinspired pH and magnetic responsive catechol-functionalized chitosan hydrogels with tunable elastic properties

Bioinspired pH and magnetic responsive catechol-functionalized chitosan hydrogels with tunable elastic properties

We have developed pH- and magnetic-responsive hydrogels that are stabilized by both covalent bonding and catechol/Fe3+ ligands. The viscoelastic properties of the gels are regulated by the complexation valence and can be used to tune drug release profiles. The stable incorporation of magnetic nanopa...
