Antibacterial Hydrogels In article number 2100722 by Zhengbao Zha and co‐workers, a blue polyvinyl alcohol‐iodine hydrogel with thermochromic and laser‐triggered liquefaction properties, originated from the dynamic interaction between iodine and polyvinyl alcohol, is explored as an effective alternative to conventional iodophor for safe and controllable management of multidrug‐resistance bacterial‐infected open wounds.
