Reversible electroadhesion of hydrogels to animal tissues for suture-less repair of cuts or tears

Electroadhesion, i.e., adhesion induced by an electric field, occurs between non-sticky cationic and anionic hydrogels. Here, we demonstrate electroadhesion between cationic gels and animal (bovine) tissues. When gel and tissue are placed under an electric field (DC, 10 V) for 20 s, the pair strongl...
