Abstract:
Provided is an example method of preparing a porous metal oxide structure, the method including adsorbing a metal oxide precursor onto a template having a networked structure of branched polynucleotides, decomposing and converting the adsorbed metal oxide precursor into a metal oxide, and removing the template. The networked structure of branched polynucleotides may be used as a template so as to facilitate control of the pore structure of a porous metal oxide structure.
Abstract:
Provided are a nanoparticle assembly including a DNA hydrogel and gold nanoparticles, methods of preparing thereof, and an active material delivering composite including the same. The nanoparticle assembly has an excellent biocompatibility, an ability to prevent an accumulation of the nanoparticle assembly in a body, and is capable of being used to provide physical and chemical treatment.
Abstract:

Various types of metal nanoparticles may be efficiently prepared using the template for preparing a nanoparticle and the nanoparticle prepared using the template.
Abstract:
An electro-conductive hydrogel composite material that may be suitable as an artificial skin satisfies all four requirements of artificial skin, namely, flexibility, electrical conductivity, healing property, and biocompatibility. The electro-conductive hydrogel composite material includes a hydrogel composition including water and a cross-linkable polymer which reversibly forms cross-linkage by hydrogen bonding; and an electro-conductive material dispersed in the hydrogen bond-based hydrogel.
Abstract:
Provided is a method of preparing a porous metal material. The method includes: obtaining a composite of a DNA hydrogel and a metal precursor by mixing the DNA hydrogel and the metal precursor; and reducing the composite of the DNA hydrogel and the metal precursor.
