Poor mechanical properties and freezing at low temperatures of traditional photochromic hydrogels limit their applications. Here, a novel type nanocomposite organohydrogels (NC OGHs) by adding tungsten oxide nanoparticles was prepared simple one-pot method. The NC OGHs demonstrated excellent integrated properties, including high transparency, low-temperature resistance, anti-dehydration, rewrite capability, UV blocking ability. In addition, the degree coloration could be precisely controlled irradiation, bleaching process temperature atmosphere. Besides flexible optical information storage devices filters, these were also used for smart windows in both room cold environments. work provides new insight into organohydrogels.

Abstract The substantial economic impact of non-healing wounds, scarring, and burns stemming from skin injuries is evident, resulting in a financial burden on both patients the healthcare system. This review paper provides an overview skin’s vital role guarding against various environmental challenges as body’s largest protective organ associated developments biomaterials for wound healing. We first introduce composition tissue intricate processes healing, with special attention to crucial immunomodulation acute chronic wounds. highlights how imbalance immune response, particularly wounds underlying health conditions such diabetes immunosuppression, hinders normal healing stages. Then, this distinguishes between traditional wound-healing strategies that create optimal microenvironment recent peptide-based modulate cellular responses facilitate closure. Additionally, we highlight importance considering stages process. By integrating advanced materials engineering in-depth understanding biology, approach holds promise reshaping field management ultimately offering improved outcomes

Metal ion-induced peptide assembly is an interesting field. As compared to traditional antibacterial Ag+, rare earth metal ions possess the advantage of performance with photostability and low toxicity. Herein, a new Fmoc-FFWDD-OH was designed synthesized, which could form stable hydrogel induced by ions, including Tb3+, Eu3+, La3+. The mechanical properties were characterized rheological measurements, they exhibited elasticity-dominating properties. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images showed large number nanoscale fiber structures formed in hydrogel. Circular dichroism (CD) spectra, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) ThT assays, X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern illustrated formation mechanism structure. proved good on Escherichia coli (E. coli) excellent biocompatibility. introduction may have some potential applications biological medical fields.
