Fig. 9 Schematic of a molecular-necklace system to create multifunctional hydrogels with independent control of gel mechanics, cell adhesiveness, and chemical functionality. (a) Inclusion complex between PEGDA and α-CD (R = hydroxyl or other functional groups). (b) Tuning the mechanical properties of an α-CD–PEG hydrogel independent of α-CD concentration. (c) Tuning the concentration of a cell adhesive peptide through threading different amount of functionalized α-CD independent of gel cross-linking density. (d) Tuning the chemical functionality of a hydrogel through threading α-CD with different functional groups (i.e., hydrophobic, hydrophilic or charged groups).
