Chirality Effect on Physical and Biological Properties of Peptide-Based Hydrogels [PDF]

open access: yesGels
The self-assembly of peptide-based building blocks into ordered structures is widely exploited for the development of novel biomaterials, including hydrogels. In this review, we analyze the effect of chirality on the ability of peptides to form hydrogels.
