Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed a structural colored hydrogel to monitor estrogens in living organisms. The hydrogel contains estrogen receptors whose dimerization is known to be triggered by estrogens. Upon stimulation with estrogen, the hydrogel is shrunk, resulting in the changes in its structural color.
