ABSTRACT
Supramolecular hydrogels can be obtained via self-assembly of small molecules in aqueous environments. In this study, we describe the development of oxidation-responsive supramolecular hydrogels comprising glucosamine derivatives with an aryl sulfide group. We demonstrate that hydrogen peroxide can induce a gel-sol transition through the oxidation of the sulfide group to the corresponding sulfoxide. Furthermore, we show that this oxidation responsiveness can be extended to photo-responsiveness with the aid of a photosensitizer.
