Hydrogel degradation triggered by pH for the smart release of antibiotics to combat bacterial infection. (21st December 2016) - Lu, Zhentan
Abstract : pH-Triggered smart drug release for the treatment of bacterial infection. Abstract : Here we developed a hydrogel that could be triggered by a change in pH to degrade and smartly release antibiotics to combat a bacterial infection; use of this hydrogel could reduce the inappropriate and disproportionate use of antibiotics.
