## Abstract By means of a conventional cross‐linking/co‐polymerization reaction of modified gum arabic (M‐GA), acrylamide (AAm), and potassium acrylate (KAAc) in the presence of magnetite (Fe~3~O~4~) nanoparticles, a magnetic field‐sensitive M‐GA‐based hydrogel (smart hydrogel) was synthesized to i
