Hydrogels are 3D networks of water-soluble polymers that are cross-linked. Hydrogels are produced from almost any water-soluble polymer, and these can have a range of chemical compositions and bulk physical characteristics. Moreover, hydrogels can be made in multiple physical shapes, like slabs, microparticles, nanoparticles, coatings, and films. Therefore, hydrogels are widely used in clinical practice and experimental medicine for several applications, including tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, diagnostics, cellular immobilization, biomolecule or cell separation, and barrier materials to govern biological adhesions. Traditional drug delivery methods are hindered by concerns such as systemic toxicity and repetitive dosage. Hydrogels provide convenient drug delivery carriers, ensuring that these disadvantages are reduced while the drug's therapeutic benefits are enhanced. Hydrogels have emerged as highly efficient drug delivery systems due to delicately adjustable physical characteristics that provide controlled drug release features and the benefits of labile drug protection from degradation.
