“…Fig. 1 C illustrates that the majority of aldehyde groups undergo interaction with amino groups to form imine bonds in the G-O hydrogel and G- O -B 0.5 hydrogel structures, thus causing the characteristic peak of aldehyde group at 1740 cm −1 to become less prominent [ 46 ]. In contrast, the characteristic peak of aldehyde group in the OP group remains unaffected.…”
