Hierarchical Self-Assembly of Amino Acid Derivatives into Enzyme-Responsive Luminescent Gel

  • Yibao Li,
  • Yu Peng,
  • Wei Liu,
  • Yulan Fan,
  • Yongquan Wu,
  • Xun Li and
  • Xiaolin Fan

In this study, a novel three-component hydrogel has been designed and fabricated via hierarchical self-assembly by amino acid derivative (NPPD), riboflavin (RF) and α-cyclodextrin (α-CD). These molecules were aggregated to form some fibrous structure...
