abstract = "Hybrid hydrogel consisting of peptide cross-linker was developed. The hydrogel was photopolymerized to form 3D posts inside a microfluidic channel. The peptide used is a substrate for botulinum neurotoxin. In preliminary studies, the hydrogel structure was shown to be degraded in the presence of the toxin, thus acting as a biosensor. The rate and extent of degradation was tuned by changing the cross-link density of the hydrogel.",
