High Relaxivity Gadolinium‐Polydopamine Nanoparticles
AbstractThis study reports the preparation of a series of gadolinium‐polydopamine nanoparticles (GdPD‐NPs) with tunable metal loadings. GdPD‐NPs are analyzed by nuclear magnetic relaxation dispersion and with a 7‐tesla (T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner.

Direct Evidence for the Polymeric Nature of Polydopamine [PDF]
AbstractInspired by the adhesive proteins of mussels, polydopamine (pDA) has emerged as one of the most widely employed materials for surface functionalization. Despite numerous attempts at characterization, little consensus has emerged regarding whether pDA is a covalent polymer or a noncovalent aggregate of low molecular weight species.

Polydopamine Copolymers for Stable Drug Nanoprecipitation
Polydopamine (PDA), a biomaterial inspired by marine mussels, has attracted interest in cancer nanomedicine due to its photothermal properties, nanoparticle coating, and pi-pi stacking-based drug encapsulation abilities. Despite numerous one-pot and post-polymerization modifications, PDA copolymers have not been sufficiently studied in the context of ...

Polydopamine-Stabilized Aluminum Nanocrystals: Aqueous Stability and Benzo[a]pyrene Detection
Aluminum nanocrystals have emerged as an earth-abundant material for plasmonics applications. Al nanocrystals readily oxidize in aqueous-based solutions, however, transforming into highly stratified γ-AlOOH nanoparticles with a 700% increase in surface ...
