Understanding the self-assembly process and tunability of the final properties of dipeptide-based low molecular weight hydrogels
Reported in this thesis is the ability to prepare a number of dipeptide-conjugate hydrogels with tunable final properties, through judicious choice of the assembly conditions and gelator structure. Gelation of these materials can be triggered by solvent-mediated, pH-triggered, UV-triggered and elect...
