Researchers have created a smart wound dressing that can sense when harmful bacteria are present and respond by releasing antibiotics only when needed. Biomedical engineers at Brown University have ...

To better understand our cells and extracellular matrix—the 3D scaffolding that surrounds our cells—scientists apply different mechanical forces to simulate these microenvironments. A new study uses ...

Biomedical engineers from Brown University have developed a new wound dressing material that releases antibiotic drugs only when harmful bacteria are present in a wound. In the new study, published in ...

A light-induced crosslinking strategy enables multi-color patterning of anti-opal hydrogel with a minimum line width of 15 μm, significantly enhancing information capacity. Control film crosslinking ...

Researchers from the University of Birmingham, U.K., are creating a new 'lollipop' diagnostic for mouth cancer using a novel smart hydrogel. Developed by Dr. Ruchi Gupta and colleagues from the School ...

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar have engineered a hydrogel that can remove industrial dyes from ...

The thermal responsive characteristics of thermochromic hydrogels in smart window applications mainly manifest in the performance regulation of their phase transition temperature, optical properties, ...
