Chirality-dependent cell adhesion and enrichment in Janus nanocomposite hydrogels

Janus NC hydrogel by connecting two enantiomorphous NC hydrogels is prepared. It was used to investigate the effect of opposite enantiomers on the behaviors of healthy and cancer cells in a single biomaterial at the same time and under the same reaction conditions. The chirality-dependent cell affinity is used to enrich healthy cells within the Janus NC hydrogel from a mixture of healthy cells and cancer cells.153
