Nanocomposite Hydrogels for Water Purification
Abstract: DNA hydrogels have been demonstrated as versatile catalysts, potential adsorbents, sensors and immobilization carriers of bioactive molecules. They are a type of tenuous, semiflexible polymeric network that consists of precisely designed synthetic nucleotide strands as chemical or physical cross-linkers. Hydrogels have been widely studied due to their improved physicochemical properties and used as antibacterial platforms, wastewater pollutants, adsorbents and drug deliverers. Because of their biocompatibility and the ability to mix …
