This has been possible due to the synthesis of new hydrogel systems with increased sensitivity – a sensitivity of up to 10− 5 pH units has already been established. Recently, pH-sensitive hydrogels have shown to be very useful in biomedical applications, such as targeted cancer treatment and treatment of skin lesions. Prolonged drug release has been made available through the use of such hydrogels. The synthesis of pH-sensitive hydrogels is also quick and cost-effective. This review presents a background on the properties of pH-sensitive hydrogels and discusses some of the hydrogels with different sensitivity ranges and their possible applications. A range of synthesis processes have also been briefly introduced along with the fabrication of different structures such as microcantilevers and contact lenses.Keywords: pH-sensitive, sensors, hydrogels, biomedical applications, biocompatibleHendi AUmair Hassan MElsherif MAlqattan BPark SYetisen AKButt HDove Medical Pressarticleph-sensitivesensorshydrogelsbiomedical applicationsbiocompatibleMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, Vol Volume 15, Pp 3887-3901 (2020)
