Synthesis of Poly(Itaconate)s With High Monomer Conversion Applying Emulsion Polymerization

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1284-1296, 15 March 2025.
Itaconic acid and its derivatives are a promising and bio‐based substitute for oil‐based polymers such as acrylates. In this study, the optimization of polymerization of itaconic acid esters is described by applying emulsion polymerization leading to high reaction conversions and low residual monomer contents. ABSTRACT Itaconic acid and its derivatives

From ab initio quantum mechanics to molecular neurobiology: A cation-pi binding site in the nicotinic receptor [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The nicotinic acetylcholine receptor is the prototype ligand-gated ion channel. A number of aromatic amino acids have been identified as contributing to the agonist binding site, suggesting that cation-pi interactions may be involved in binding the ...

Polymer brush collapse under shear flow

open access: yes, 2017
Shear responsive surfaces offer potential advances in a number of applications. Surface functionalisation using polymer brushes is one route to such properties, particularly in the case of entangled polymers.

Nitroxide‐Mediated Polymerization Synthesis of Geminal Bisphosphonate‐Functionalized (Co)polymers and Their Affinity to Hydroxyapatite Surface

open access: yesJournal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
A novel styrenic monomer bearing gem‐bisphosphonate groups is synthesized in a single step. The nitroxide‐mediated (co)polymerization of this monomer proceeds in a well‐controlled manner, yielding bisphosphonate‐functionalized (co)polymers with low dispersity.

Recent developments in atom transfer radical polymerization initiators for development of polymer-protein bioconjugates [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of BioScience and Biotechnology, 2013
One of the major challenges in modern synthetic polymer chemistry is to synthesize end defined polymers of different end functionality with predetermined uniform molecular weight.

Data in support of dual-functionalized cellulose nanofibrils prepared through TEMPO-mediated oxidation and surface-initiated ATRP

open access: yesData in Brief, 2015
We previously studied a suitably 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO)-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TOCNs) that can be further functionalized with initiating sites and overcame the obstacle of performing atom transfer radical polymerization ...

Copper mediated reversible deactivation radical polymerization in aqueous media [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Key advances within the past 10 years have transformed copper mediated radical polymerization from a technique which was not very tolerant to protic media into a range of closely related processes capable of control over the polymerization of a wide ...

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

Polymer brushes for antibiofouling and lubrication

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2017
Surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) could provide many merits for the preparation of polymer brush, such as the well-defined chemical configurations, gradient, architecture and thickness.

Fluctuating β‐Sheet Secondary Structure in DS119 Explains the Small Effects of Backbone N‐Amination on Thermal Stability

open access: yesJournal of Peptide Science, Volume 32, Issue 5, May 2026.
Residues with backbone N‐amination have been introduced into a region of parallel β‐sheet secondary structure. Contrary to predictions, the N‐amination of Trp9 or Phe33 did not give an increase in the thermal stability of DS119. MD simulations suggest this is due to the highly fluctuating nature of the β‐sheet region. ABSTRACT The miniprotein DS119 has
