Sea cucumber mimicking bacterial cellulose composite hydrogel with ionic strength-sensitive mechanical adaptivity.

Qian C , Asoh TA , Uyama H .


???displayArticle.abstract???
A novel strategy for fabricating sea cucumber-mimicking hydrogels composed of a bacterial cellulose matrix and a stimuli-responsive polymer is presented. This mechanically adaptive hydrogel shows a unique reversible stiffness change in response to its ionic strength without any significant volume changes.
