Structural and mechanical characterization of the composite FmocFF/PS hydrogels. (a) FTIR spectra of FmocFF/PS composites, FmocFF and PS. (b) The complex viscosity (η”) versus frequency plots of the pure and composite samples. (c) Swelling ratio of the FmocFF/PS composite hydrogels and FmocFF. Data analyzed using one-way ANOVA. (d) Curcumin release profile from FmocFF and the composite FmocFF/PS hydrogels.
