(A) Schematic representation of iCMBA synthesis and mussel-inspired iCMBA network via catechol-mediated cross-linking after mixing with oxidizing agent sodium (meta) periodate (PI). (B) Adhesion strength and (C) degradation profile of normal iCMBA, clickable iCMBA cross-linked by PI, CuSO4-NaLAc-HEPES, or both (Panel B and C adapted with permission from figure 5 and figure 4 of Reference 37, respectively). Anti-fungal performance of AbAf iCBMA against C. albicans in terms of (D) fungal survival ratios and (E) inhibition halos after direct exposure of cross-linked hydrogels to C. albicans after 24 h of incubation (Panel D and E adapted with permission from figure 7 of Reference 38).
