Synthetic Hydrogels Incorporating Hydrolytic/Nonhydrolytic Macromer Ratios Exhibit Improved Tunability of In Vivo Degradation and Immune Responses

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A synthetic 4‐arm maleimide‐terminated poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG‐4MAL) hydrogel system that combines hydrolytic ester‐linked macromer (PEG‐4eMAL) with nondegradable amide‐linked macromer (PEG‐4aMAL) in various stoichiometric ratios to tune the degradability rate. The macromers are crosslinked with dithiothreitol via thiol‐maleimide click reaction. The

On the geometry of Tensor Network States of $2 \times N$ Grids

open access: yes, 2019
We discuss the geometry of a class of tensor network states, called projected entangled pair states in the Physics literature. We provide initial results towards a question of Verstraete and Rizzi regarding the tensor network state of an $M \times N ...

Beyond Bioactive Glass Composition: Using Morphology to Improve in Vitro and in Vivo Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bioactive glasses can easily be shaped into granules, spheres, discs, fibers, or three‐dimensional scaffolds. The resulting morphology not only affects handling properties; it has a direct influence on various glass properties, including results of acellular immersion experiments or in vitro studies with cells or bacteria, but also on in vivo ...

Molecular Simulations of Polymer‐based Drug Nanocarriers: From Physical and Structural Properties to Controlled Release

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Polymer‐based drug delivery systems can effectively overcome the limitations of free drugs in terms of solubility, stability, and plasma half‐life, yet their development has traditionally relied on time‐consuming trial‐and‐error approaches. This review highlights recent advances in applying molecular simulation to the design of polymer‐based drug ...

A New Family of Ternary Intermetallic Compounds with Dualistic Atomic Ordering – The ZIP Phases

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The ZIP phases are ternary intermetallic compounds with dualistic atomic ordering, i.e., they exhibit one face‐centered cubic (fcc; space group Fd3¯$\bar 3$m) variant and one hexagonal (space group P63/mmc) variant. The ZIP phases in the Nb‐Si‐Ni system are the Nb3SiNi2 (fcc) and Ni3SiNb2 (hexagonal) ternary IMCs, crystal structure schematics of which ...
