Bioorthogonal Engineering of Cellular Microenvironments Using Isonitrile Ligations
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Highly selective chemistries are required for fabrication and post‐cross–linking modification of cell‐encapsulating hydrogels used in tissue engineering applications. Isonitrile ligation reactions represent a promising class of bioorthogonal chemistries for engineering hydrogel‐based cellular microenvironments. Isonitrile‐based hydrogels are stable and

Biofilm Control by Active Topography with Mucin Coating
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study reports a new antifouling strategy based on a bioinspired design. Mucin coating enhances biofilm control by active topography with beating micron‐sized pillars. Besides the mechanical force of beating pillars, the antibiofilm activities also involve biological factors since mucin coating inhibits swarming motility and c‐di‐GMP synthesis in ...

Polyethylene Glycol Camouflaged Earthworm Hemoglobin [PDF]
PLOS ONE, 2017 Nearly 21 million components of blood and whole blood and transfused annually in the United States, while on average only 13.6 million units of blood are donated. As the demand for Red Blood Cells (RBCs) continues to increase due to the aging population, this deficit will be more significant. Despite decades of research to develop hemoglobin (Hb) based

Responses of the mangrove Rhizophora mucronata to high salinities and low osmotic potentials [PDF]
, 1986 The effect of solutions of seawater or non-saline polyethylene glycol (PEG)-6000 on dry mass, tissue water potential, stomatal resistance and inorganic solute uptake were investigated in the mangrove, Rhizophora mucronata Lam.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work presents π–conjugated polymers based on dihydropyrazine (DHP) and ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT), developed to produce highly conductive, flexible films for printed electronics. By optimizing the DHP and EDOT ratio, strong and compact π–π stacking is achieved, resulting in polymer films with conductivities up to 1700 S cm−1 under ambient ...

Crowding alone cannot account for cosolute effect on amyloid aggregation.
PLoS ONE, 2011 Amyloid fiber formation is a specific form of protein aggregation, often resulting from the misfolding of native proteins. Aimed at modeling the crowded environment of the cell, recent experiments showed a reduction in fibrillation halftimes for amyloid ...
