Fibrous hydrogels under biaxial confinement
Studies of the confinement of filamentous hydrogels such as fibrin, a major component of blood clots, can shed light on the resistance of strained occlusive clots to lysis with therapeutic agents. Here, the authors show the mechanism of the response of fibrous hydrogels to confinement.
