A blueprint for robust crosslinking of mobile species in biogels with weakly adhesive molecular anchors

Biological polymeric matrices often use molecular anchors, such as antibodies, to trap nanoparticulates. Here, the authors find that anchor-matrix bonds that are weak and short-lived confer superior trapping potency, contrary to the prevailing belief that effective molecular anchors should form stro...
