Structure, phase behavior and inhomogeneous fluid properties of binary dendrimer mixtures [PDF]
The effective pair potentials between different kinds of dendrimers in solution can be well approximated by appropriate Gaussian functions. We find that in binary dendrimer mixtures the range and strength of the effective interactions depend strongly upon the specific dendrimer architecture.

Nanoscale Investigation of Generation 1 PAMAM Dendrimers Interaction with a Protein Nanopore
Herein, we describe at uni-molecular level the interactions between poly(amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers of generation 1 and the α-hemolysin protein nanopore, at acidic and neutral pH, and ionic strengths of 0.5 M and 1 M KCl, via single-molecule ...

Structure and interaction of flexible dendrimers in concentrated solution [PDF]
We study the influence of mutual interaction on the conformation of flexible poly(propyleneamine) dendrimers of fourth generation in concentrated solution. Mixtures of dendrimers with protonated and deuterated end groups are investigated by small-angle neutron scattering up to volume fractions of 0.23.

Designing of Self‐Dispersing Soft Dendritic Microcleaners for Microplastics Capture and Recovery
The capture and recovery of microplastics from open aquatic systems is a complex problem, which necessitates nontrivial solutions. The principles of a comprehensive multistage process based on sustainably sourced microcleaners with hierarchical morphology are demonstrated.

Optical excitations in diphenylacetylene based dendrimers studied by a coupled exciton model with off-diagonal disorder [PDF]
A phenomenological coupled exciton model is proposed in order to characterize optical excitations in extended dendrimers. An onsite exciton state is assigned at each phenyl rings and a nearest neighbor hopping integral which obeys the Gaussian distribution is considered between the exciton states.

H2O2‐Generating Advanced Nanomaterials for Cancer Treatment
H2O2‐generating nanoplatforms can exploit tumor redox imbalance for O2 and toxic reactive oxygen species generation, leading to hypoxia reversal, and apoptosis of cancer cells, respectively. This review highlights the mechanisms of these nanoplatforms, including exogenous H₂O₂ delivery, endogenous amplification, and metal peroxides, which leads to ...
