Influence of chemical and physical change of pollen microgels on swelling/de-swelling behavior
Pollen, the male microgametophyte of seed plants, is commonly used as a food and health supplement. Here, a facile method to transform sunflower pollen into pH-responsive microgels with tailored properties is presented. The structure and morphology of the pollen microgel are characterized by scannin...
