Abstract:

This paper presents the synthesis of fluorescein-modified hydrogel materials. The obtained materials were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy. Then their sorption capacity in distilled water and Ringer's liquid was determined. Using digital microscopy, the morphology of the obtained systems was characterized.

Keywords: hydrogels, cross-linking, temperature/pH-sensitive materials
