Stimuli-responsive liquid cell scaffold: reversible viscoelasticity switching of a polymer in an ionic liquid by visible-light
Cell culture at liquid|liquid interfaces has attracted attention in mechanobiology. A visible-light-responsive polymer solution in a non-cytotoxic ionic liquid reversibly switches viscoelasticity, offering a new platform for liquid cell scaffolds.
