Rheological properties of the gels of biological surfactant sodium deoxycholate/amino acids/halide salts systems

Among various applications, drug delivery is one of the significant properties of hydrogels and this interesting modification of the NaDC hydrogels may enhance its applications in biomedicine for tunable drug delivery. The drugs which are embedded into the network structure of hydrogels could be released to the nidus positions when the network structures are destroyed encountering l-Lys or l-Arg.
