Nanocomposite hydrogels from metallic nanoparticles. The inclusion of metallic nanoparticles within hydrogels also allows us to obtain NCHs with electrical/magnetic responsiveness. In addition, noble metals such as silver also possess antimicrobial activity, and are therefore interesting for wound dressing.
