Abstract

Recent Advances in the Development and Applications of Smart Biomaterials. Stimuli-responsive materials possess the unique capability to respond to internal triggers, such as biological signals like glucose, pH, and temperature, as well as external stimuli including light, pressure, electricity, and magnetic fields. The biomedical community is showing immense interest in these materials due to their potential for diverse applications in various active structures and devices, including drug delivery systems, gene carriers, tissue engineering, cancer therapy, bioimaging, and biosensing. This book's primary objective is to provide an overview of the different types of stimuli-responsive materials, emphasizing their properties, design, and recent advancements in their biomedical applications. © 2023 American Chemical Society.
