Stimuli-sensitive hydrogels: A novel ophthalmic drug delivery system
Background: Stimuli-sensitive hydrogels are three-dimensional, hydrophilic, polymeric networks capable of imbibing large amounts of water or biological fluids on stimulation, ENHANCED COLLAGEN PWD such as pH, temperature and ionic change.Aim: To develop hydrogels that are sensitive to stimuli, i.e.pH, in the cul-de-sac of the eye for providing a pr
