Abstract

Abstract An injectable and self‐healing multifluorescent hydrogel system based on engineered coiled‐coil polypeptide and CdSe@ZnS quantum dots (QDs) is developed. The mechanical properties of the PC10A‐QD hydrogel are able to be tuned by changing the concentrations of PC10A and QDs. The G′ of PC10A hydrogel increases from 800 to 1000 Pa by doping 6 nm oil‐soluble CdSe@ZnS QDs. The PC10A‐QD hydrogel can easily pass through a 26‐gauge needle without clogging. In addition, through interfacial assembly of PC10A polypeptide on the surface of the PC10A‐QD hydrogel, each of these hydrogel can self‐assemble into a multifluorescent hydrogel. This approach for preparation of injectable self‐healing multifluorescent hydrogels is expected to apply in biomedicine.
