In this review we intend to provide a relatively comprehensive summary of the work of
supramolecular hydrogelators after 2004 and to put emphasis particularly on the …

Enzymatic reactions and noncovalent (ie, supramolecular) interactions are two fundamental
nongenetic attributes of life. Enzymatic noncovalent synthesis (ENS) refers to a process …

This review discusses one-dimensional supramolecular polymers that form in aqueous
media. First, naturally occurring supramolecular polymers are described, in particular …

Hydrogels are a series of soft and wet materials with three dimensions of crosslinked
networks. Hydrogels have attracted great attention due to their diverse functional properties …

In the human body, many soft tissues with hierarchically ordered composite structures, such
as cartilage, skeletal muscle, the corneas, and blood vessels, exhibit highly anisotropic …

Aromatic peptide amphiphiles are gaining popularity as building blocks for the bottom-up
fabrication of nanomaterials, including gels. These materials combine the simplicity of small …

Supramolecular hydrogels assembled from amino acids and peptide‐derived hydrogelators
have shown great potential as biomimetic three‐dimensional (3D) extracellular matrices …

This review discusses supramolecular biofunctional materials, a novel class of biomaterials
formed by small molecules that are held together via noncovalent interactions. The …

Cadmium sulfide (CdS) quantum dots (< 10 nm in size) have been successfully synthesized
in situ without any capping agent in a Zn (II)-based low-molecular-weight metallohydrogel …

As a novel class of three-dimensional (3D) hydrophilic cross-linked polymers,
supramolecular hydrogels not only display unique physicochemical properties (eg, water …
