Hydrogels have wide applications in tissue engineering and bioelectronics. In spite of widespread applications of functional hydrogels with superior conductive or magnetic responsive performances, there are still some limitations caused by insufficient flexibility, resilience and responsive sensitivity in some fields, such as highly flexible electronics, organic pressure sensitive sensors, and responsive actuators...
Myofibroblasts have been implicated in scar tissue formation around biomaterials. When biomaterials are implanted as part of a tissue engineered construct, as a sensor, as a prosthetic or even as a drug delivery device, scar formation fibrosis around the biomaterial often interferes with the intended function...
