This article reports the design, synthesis and results of first in vitro model studies of a conceptually novel class of polymer therapeutics in which the cargo is attached to a polymer backbone via a noncovalent, biologically inspired coiled coil linker, w ...
We present a simple and highly versatile protocol for polymer ablation: hard x-ray irradiation makes it possible to rapidly depolymerize hyaluronan hydrogels and fabricate three-dimensional network of microchannels. Photodynamic and photochemical analyses ...
The use of ionic liq.-polymer in supported ultrafiltration membrane in vacuum pervaporation has been verified. The ultrafiltration membranes were impregnated by two ionic liqs. (1-ethenyl-3-ethyl-imidazolium hexafluorophosphate and tetrapropylammonium tetr ...
The bond orientational correlation function (BCF) of a semiflexible ring polymer on a flat surface is studied theoretically. For a stiff chain, we give an exact analytic form of BCF with perturbation calculations. For a chain sufficiently longer than its p ...
Polycarboxylate molecules and oligomers have been investigated as growth modifiers during seeded calcite precipitation. To better understand possible molecular interactions and kinetic effects, additives with different structures and molecular weights have ...
Virus filtration by size exclusion is a robust means of eliminating viruses in blood or pharma products. Porous polymer membranes with a narrow size distribution are used to allow passage of the protein product but retain viruses. The chosen polymer must r ...
Hydrolytically degradable polymer brushes would represent an interesting platform for the development of functional coatings for various biomaterials applications In this manuscript, the surface- initiated atom transfer radical copolymerization of 5.6-benz ...
Increasing interest in specific applications in the field of micro- and nano-electromechanical systems (MEMS and NEMS) has raised the request for new functional polymeric materials. Epoxy based photoresists are being broadly used for the fabrication of mic ...
The conformation and titrn. curves of weak polyampholytes are examd. using Monte Carlo simulations with screened Coulomb potentials in the Grand Canonical ensemble. Two different types of monomers are considered. Depending on the soln. pH, monomers A are w ...
Ultrathin films of the ferroelectric polymer poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF-TrFE)] have recently attracted intensive research interest due to their potential applications in emerging organic devices. As special geometry confinement syst ...
