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

Quality changes kinetics of apple tissue during frozen storage with temperature fluctuations
, 2018 © 2018 Apple quality after freezing is affected by temperature fluctuations during cold storage. Ice re-crystallization and sublimation occur slowly at a constant temperature over a long period of storage, and more rapidly during fluctuating temperatures.
