Controlled surface initiated polymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide from polycaprolactone substrates for regulating cell attachment and detachment [PDF]
Poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) substrates were modified with thermoresponsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) brushes to direct and control cellular attachment and detachment. Prior to brush growth, the surface of PCL was activated by a diamine to allow

Development of hybrid diblock copolypeptide amphiphile/magnetic metal complexes and their spin crossover with lower-critical-solution-temperature(LCST)-type transition [PDF]
Abstract Diblock copolypeptide amphiphiles have been attracting much interest as motifs for self-assembly in the production of nanostructures such as nanoparticles, nanosheets, and nanofibers. In this study, we first focus on the self-assembly of magnetic metal complexes in water using diblock copolypeptides. In addition, not only were nanocomposites
