(1) 300 mg of gelatin (glue strength: ∼250 g Bloom, Aladdin, China) was added into 7 mL of deionized (DI) water and then was stirred for 30 min at 40°C using magnetic stirrer until the gelatin was dissolved.
(2) 20 mg of photoinitiator (2-hydroxy-4′-(2-hydroxyethoxy)-2-methylpropiophenone) (Macklin, Shanghai, China) was added into 3 mL of DI water. Then mixed liquid was stirred for 10 min at 30°C using magnetic stirrer to obtain photoinitiator aqueous solution.
(3) The gelatin aqueous solution and the photoinitiator aqueous solution were mixed, and 0.1 mL of acid-base buffer was added.
(4) The Fe3O4 particles (20 nm) and LH were added into the mixed solution, and adjust the concentrations to 2.5% and 20 μM, respectively.
