Electrical and electrochemical properties of imidazolium and phosphonium-based pNIPAAM ionogels
Electrochimica Acta, 2020 The electrical and electrochemical properties of two ionogel materials based on the poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) gel with 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ethyl sulfate and trihexyltetradecylphosphonium dicyanamide ionic liquids are investigated. The current-voltage curves show a current rectification for both ionogels and ionic liquids after inducing ion ...

Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Simulation of controllable permeation in PNIPAAm coated membranes
SPIE Proceedings, 2016 Membranes separate fluid compartments and can comprise transport structures for selective permeation. In biology, channel proteins are specialized in their atomic structure to allow transport of specific compounds (selectivity). Conformational changes in protein structure allow the control of the permeation abilities by outer stimuli (gating).

Recent Advances in Cryogel Applications for Musculoskeleatal Regeneration
Medicinal Research Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hydrogels have been widely used in tissue engineering due to their high‐water content and biocompatibility, yet their densely cross‐linked microstructure inherently limits cell infiltration, mass transport, and mechanical support. Cryogels, formed through partial freezing and crosslinking under subzero conditions, provide unique 3D macroporous
