Effect of distribution of stickers along backbone on temperature-dependent structural properties in associative polymer solutions [PDF]
Effect of distribution of stickers along the backbone on structural properties in associating polymer solutions is studied using self-consistent field lattice model. Only two inhomogeneous morphologies, i.e., microfluctuation homogenous (MFH) and micelle

Multifunctional targeting micelle nanocarriers with both imaging and therapeutic potential for bladder cancer. [PDF]
BackgroundWe previously developed a bladder cancer-specific ligand (PLZ4) that can specifically bind to both human and dog bladder cancer cells in vitro and in vivo. We have also developed a micelle nanocarrier drug-delivery system.

Self-consistent field theory for obligatory coassembly [PDF]
We present a first-order model for obligatory coassembly of block copolymers via an associative driving force in a nonselective solvent, making use of the classical self-consistent field (SCF) theory.

Atomic Model and Micelle Dynamics of QS-21 Saponin
QS-21 is a saponin extracted from Quillaja saponaria, widely investigated as a vaccine immunoadjuvant. However, QS-21 use is mainly limited by its chemical instability, significant variety in molecular composition and low tolerance dose in mammals. Also,

Micelle fragmentation and wetting in confined flow
We use coarse-grained molecular-dynamics (MD) simulations to investigate the structural and dynamical properties of micelles under non-equilibrium Poiseuille flow in a nano-confined geometry.

Multipotent Poly(Tertiary Amine‐Oxide) Micelles for Efficient Cancer Drug Delivery
The cancer drug delivery process involves a series of biological barriers, which require the nanomedicine to exhibit different, even opposite properties for high therapeutic efficacy.

Unfolding and refolding of cytochrome c driven by the interaction with lipid micelles [PDF]
Binding of native cyt c to L-PG micelles leads to a partially unfolded conformation of cyt c. This micelle-bound state has no stable tertiary structure, but remains as -helical as native cyt c in solution.

Self-consistent field predictions for quenched spherical biocompatible triblock copolymer micelles
We have used the Scheutjens-Fleer self-consistent field (SF-SCF) method to predict the self-assembly of triblock copolymers with a solvophilic middle block and sufficiently long solvophobic outer blocks.
