High-Throughput in situ Synthesis of Biomimetic Magnetite Loaded Nanovesicles Naturally occurring magnetite magnetic nanoparticles are produced by magnetic bacteria within liposomes called magnetosomes. These have numerous desirable properties, for example, they are...
A methacrylated hyaluronic acid scaffold with oriented pores perpendicular to the axial direction by an unidirectional freeze-drying method is reported.
Polyphosphoesters, with their unique features and diverse functionalities, hold tremendous potential to advance drugs carriers. Advanced synthetic tools to synthesize them efficiently and functionalization methodologies are discussed
In their recent review in Macromolecular Bioscience, Sören Reinhard and Ernst Wagner deal with the challenges in siRNA delivery and how they can be overcome.
So-called “biosensors” are sensors that detect or quantify biomolecules, such as glucose, proteins, or DNA.
A recently published feature article discusses the reasons for the poor targeting efficiency via polymeric micelles, and the approaches that have been explored to tackle this problem.
To avoid an undesired protein adsorption, nanoparticles were masked with poly(2-oxazoline)s resulting in a stealth coating comparable or superior to PEG.
Different mechanisms for imparting conductivity to non-conductive polymeric biomaterials are discussed in a review by Patton et. al.
A new generation of enzyme-responsive HPMA copolymer-drug conjugates employing a enzyme-sensitive oligopeptide linker was developed. Fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) was applied to investigate the enzyme-responsive performance in both cells and animals.
To tailor the degradation of nanogels, Scientists from Utrecht University investigated the impact of the structure of polymeric building blocks on the properties of nanogels and their degradation behavior.
