Abstract
⺠Stable and biocompatible hydrogels can be synthesized from bacterial cellulose. ⺠Hydrogel characteristics can be adjusted by varying AA content and irradiation dose. ⺠Adjustable characteristics include gel fraction, density, porosity, and swelling. ⺠BC/AA hydrogels exhibit temperature- and pH-sensitive swelling behavior. ⺠BC/AA hydrogels are promising candidate drug-release systems for protein based drugs.
