| Summary: | Enzymes are highly efficient catalysts in nature, governing countless reactions in biological systems. Enzyme-based hydrogels are three-dimensional network materials with enzyme activity, created by loading enzymes into hydrogels or using hydrogels to synthesize polymeric materials. Due to their high biocompatibility, enzyme-based hydrogels exhibit broad application potential in various fields. In recent years, researchers have been continuously exploring new preparation methods to improve the physical, chemical, and biological properties of enzyme-based hydrogels. Additionally, the introduction of materials such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has further enhanced the biological activity of these hydrogels. This review summarizes recent preparation methods and structural characteristics of enzyme-based hydrogels, with a focus on their applications in biosensors and medical fields, highlighting the vast application prospects of enzyme-based hydrogels. |
