The studies of genipin-crosslinked chitosan-poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) hydrogels as smart pH responsive materials

Smart hydrogels are macromolecular networks that can exhibit significant and reversible changes in volume upon application of an external stimulus such as pH or temperature. These polymers are well suited for use in delivery systems, tissue engineering and actuation, although currently volume change...
