A novel methodology for hydrogel water content determination by EPR: The basis for real-time monitoring of controlled drug release and hydrogel swelling and degradation

The hydrogel water content is of fundamental importance for controlled drug delivery, as it influences the overall hydrogel integrity and solubility, as well as the diffusion kinetics of substances. This work describes a new methodological approach for hydrogel water content determination using elec...
