“…In the last few decades, smart materials have gotten a lot of attention due to their application in the biomedical field. , In particular, on-demand (signal-triggered) release was extensively studied for drug delivery purposes. , Among the triggering factors, one can mention biomolecular signals, magnetic field, mechanical force, temperature, electromagnetic (such as visible light, infrared, and radio waves) radiation, ultrasound, electrical field, and even more sophisticated signals, like breath . One of the most usable triggers for drug delivery is pH , due to its endogenous nature, which is often associated with a certain disease.…”
