Sulfonium‐Based Antimicrobial Block Copolymers: Influence of Hydrophobicity on Biological Activity and Antibiotic Synergy

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Sulfonium‐based antimicrobial block copolymers combine an active cationic hydrophobic block with a neutral hydrophilic block to improve cytocompatibility. The hydrophobicity of the sulfonium‐based block controls the activity against S. aureus and E coli.

Arsonic Acid Functional Polymers Enable Stabilization of Iron Oxide Nanoparticles in Aqueous Solution

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Arsonic acid containing diblock copolymers are developed to incorporate arsonic acid moieties for surface anchoring to IONPs, along with water soluble PEG blocks to impart colloidal stability in aqueous environments. The resulting polymer‐coated IONPs are evaluated for stability in physiological media and cytocompatibility.

Glyco‐Nanogels for Modulating Pseudomonas aeruginosa Biofilm

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Nanogels presenting α‐galactose and β‐fucose can significantly alter Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm dynamics through their interaction with lectins. Application timing is crucial: pre‐treatment reduces biofilm, while treatment after biofilm initiation increases biomass.

Challenges and Opportunities in Machine Learning for Light‐Emitting Polymers

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
The performance of light‐emitting polymers emerges from coupled effects of chemical diversity, morphology, and exciton dynamics across multiple length scales. This Perspective reviews recent design strategies and experimental challenges, and discusses how machine learning can unify descriptors, data, and modeling approaches to efficiently navigate ...

Hydrogels Incorporating Donor–Acceptor Stenhouse Adducts as a Platform for Photoinduced, On‐Off Switchable Release of Small Molecule Cargos

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Donor–acceptor Stenhouse aDdducts (DASAs) are known for their photoinduced tautomerization, which, when conjugated to block copolymers, can self‐assemble into tuneable polymersomes. These DASA‐polymersomes are being investigated for light‐controlled cargo release in biomedical applications.
