Thermoresponsive Self-Immolative Polyglyoxylamides
Biomacromolecules, 2020 Thermoresponsive polymers with lower critical solution temperatures (LCSTs) are of significant interest for a wide range of applications from sensors to drug delivery vehicles. However, the most widely investigated LCST polymers have nondegradable backbones, limiting their applications in vivo or in the environment.

Thermoresponsive hydrogels in biomedical applications [PDF]
European Journal of Pharmaceutics and Biopharmaceutics, 2008 Environmentally responsive hydrogels have the ability to turn from solution to gel when a specific stimulus is applied. Thermoresponsive hydrogels utilize temperature change as the trigger that determines their gelling behavior without any additional external factor.
