Protonated Glutamate and Aspartate Side Chains Can Recognize Phosphodiester Groups via Strong and Short Hydrogen Bonds in Biomacromolecular Complexes

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
The highly negatively charged phosphodiester groups of nucleic acids and cyclic (di‐)nucleotides often interact with amino acids containing polar or positively charged sidechains. Due to charge repulsion with their negatively charged carboxylate groups in their side chains, glutamate and aspartate are considered to be detrimental to such interactions ...

Bioinspired Cationic Antimicrobial Polymers

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
A review about membrane active cationic polymers with antimicrobial properties. A focus is laid on polymeric architecture, stimuli‐responsive antimicrobial polymers, as well as synergistic effects of polymers, and other compounds. Abstract Antibiotics are an essential tool of modern medicine, which is critically endangered by the spread of ...

Preparation, Characterization, and Antimicrobial Activities of Ceragenins Incorporated Into Polyvinyl Alcohol/Gelatin/Sodium Alginate‐Based Hydrogels for Treatment of Burn Wounds

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ceragenins are synthetic molecules that mimic antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) in the human immune system. They feature a bile acid‐based structure with appended positively charged groups that disrupt bacterial cell membranes, leading to microbial cell death or inactivation.

Production of a Polylactic Acid‐Based, Chitosan‐ and TiO2‐Modified Biodegradable Antimicrobial Coating Material and Investigation of Its Physical Properties

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Biopolymer coating synthesized with PLA and TiO2 successfully shows a very good barrier property against water on paper. It is supported by SEM that the coating has a good surface appearance. ABSTRACT Polymer wastes are increasingly threatening the environment.

Sensing Pico‐Newton Plasmonic Forces and Jerks of LSPR Biochips Using Simple UV‐Visible Spectroscopy

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
The figure represents the interaction of light interaction with a nanostructured plasmonic system. Incident light excites localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and induces radiation forces on the nanostructures, as illustrated by the force vectors.
