Through a mineralization process, Nap-FFC peptides produced transparent silver nanoparticle-based hydrogels (AgNPs@Nap-FFC) for antibacterial wound dressing.
We report herein the use of an aromatic–aromatic interaction to produce small molecule hydrogelators that self-assemble in water and form molecular nanofibers in the resulting hydrogels. Among these hydrogelators, a hydrogelator (
