Conductive Hydrogels for Exogenous Sensing and Cell Fate Control

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
We engineer electrically conductive hydrogels by combining sulfated glycosaminoglycans with semiconducting polymers. These hydrogels bind bioactive proteins, including growth factors, whose release or retention can be modulated by low‐voltage stimulation. The hydrogels are also integrated as 3D channels in organic electrochemical transistors as part of

An Advanced Molecularly Imprinted Polymer‐Based Electrochemical Aptasensor for Carbendazim Detection

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
A dual‐recognition electrochemical aptasensor that integrates a molecular imprinted polymer (MIP) and an aptamer is developed for the detection of a common pesticide, carbendazim (CBZ). The resulting sensor exhibits enhanced selectivity toward CBZ over structurally similar compounds and achieves a low detection limit of 1.3 nm, demonstrating its ...
