Biologically modified hydrogels: versatile analytical platforms

Scheme representing a hydrogel and two modes of incorporating bio-responsive properties.

Read Sean Bird and Lane Baker’s Minireview on of the use of responsive hydrogels in chemical sensing which will be free to access until 1st March.

It includes a discussion of available methods for assimilating an assortment of biological molecules into hydrogel matrices to act as recognition elements for bio-responsive sensors.
