A book chapter authored by ISHIKAWA (C01) has been published.

This chapter categorizes DNA hydrogels based on three stabilization mechanisms of three-dimensional networks: chemical crosslinking, physical crosslinking, and physical entanglement. It also provides an overview of stimuli-responsive applications and key challenges, such as cost and biodegradation.
