Coupling chemical networks to hydrogels controls oscillatory behavior
Daniel Reeves, Jorge Carballido-Landeira, Juan Pérez-Mercader
In this letter, we demonstrate that oscillations and excitable behavior can be imparted to a chemical network by coupling the network to an active hydrogel. We discuss two mechanis…
