Novel phosphorescent hydrogels have been explored by immobilizing an Ir(III) metal complex into the matrices of hydrogels. FTIR spectra demonstrate that the Ir(III) -PNaAMPS hydrogel is achieved by irreversible incorporation of positively charged [Ir(ppy)(2)(dmbpy)]Cl (ppy = 2-phenylpyrine, dmbpy = 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine) into negatively charged poly(2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid sodium) (PNaAMPS) hydrogel via electrostatic interaction. The photoluminescent spectra indicate that the Ir(III)-PNaAMPS hydrogel exhibits stable phosphorescence. In vitro cultivation of human retinal pigment epithelial cells demonstrates the cytocompatibility of the Ir(III)-PNaAMPS hydrogel. This work herein represents a facile pathway for fabrication of phosphorescent hydrogels.

Room temperature phosphorescent (RTP) hydrogels exhibit great potential but show poor mechanical performance (Tensile strengthen <1 MPa) and non-tunable RTP performance, hindering their practical applications. Here, we develop wood hydrogel (W-hydrogel) by the in situ polymerization of acrylamide in the presence of delignified wood. As a result of the molecular interactions between the components of delignified wood and polyacrylamide, the W-hydrogel exhibit a tensile strengthen of 38.

Chronic diseases, including diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and microvascular complications, contribute significantly to global morbidity and mortality. Current monitoring tools such as glucometers and continuous glucose monitors only measure one analyte; multiplexing technologies offer a promising approach for monitoring multiple biomarkers, enabling the management of comorbidities and providing more comprehensive disease insights. In this work, we describe a miniaturized optical "barcode" sensor with high biocompatibility for the continuous monitoring of glucose and oxygen.

Developing pure organic room-temperature phosphorescent (RTP) hydrogels is important for expanding the practical applications of phosphorescent materials. However, most of the reported RTP hydrogels containing aromatic phosphors suffer from short phosphorescent lifetimes, unstable underwater RTP emissions, and complex preparation processes. Herein, novel nonaromatic RTP hydrogels are prepared by using two types of non-traditional luminescent polymers, sodium alginate and a polymeric carboxylate, which are not RTP emissive or very weakly emissive in aqueous environments.

Article Synopsis
- Phosphorescent supramolecular hydrogels, made from a combination of amphiphilic compounds, Laponite nanosheets, and polyacrylamide, show promise for applications in photonic technologies.
- The hydrogel structure is formed through self-assembly and electrostatic interactions, leading to strong red phosphorescence and improved mechanical properties due to hydrogen bonding.
- Upon adding the organic dye IR780, the hydrogel exhibits efficient near-infrared emissions, which can be applied in cell labeling and other imaging techniques.

Phosphorescence-based oxygen-sensing hydrogels are a promising platform technology for an upcoming generation of insertable biosensors that are smaller, softer, and potentially more biocompatible than earlier designs. However, much remains unknown about their long-term performance and biocompatibility . In this paper, we design and evaluate a range of hydrogel sensors that contain oxygen-sensitive phosphors stabilized by micro- and nanocarrier systems.
