Abstract

This review synthesizes the recent advances in fiber composite hydrogels, systematically analyzing their structural design, fabrication methods, and applications in biomedical and food science domains. By integrating 100 studies, we highlight structural characteristics and advanced fabrication techniques such as microfluidic spinning, microfluidic blow-spinning and 3D bioprinting. In biomedical fields, quantitative data highlight their efficacy in engineering scaffolds, wound healing, and drug delivery. Current research on fiber composite hydrogels in food applications remains underdeveloped, with predominant focus areas confined to stimuli-responsive nutrient delivery systems and active packaging preservation mechanisms. With the accelerated advancement in intelligent materials research, substantial innovation prospects are emerging for AI-driven flexible material design and sustainable biomass utilization. Fiber composite hydrogels have important implications for translating laboratory innovations into practical solutions.

期刊介绍： Process Biochemistry is an application-orientated research journal devoted to reporting advances with originality and novelty, in the science and technology of the processes involving bioactive molecules and living organisms. These processes concern the production of useful metabolites or materials, or the removal of toxic compounds using tools and methods of current biology and engineering. Its main areas of interest include novel bioprocesses and enabling technologies (such as nanobiotechnology, tissue engineering, directed evolution, metabolic engineering, systems biology, and synthetic biology) applicable in food (nutraceutical), healthcare (medical, pharmaceutical, cosmetic), energy (biofuels), environmental, and biorefinery industries and their underlying biological and engineering principles.
