Recognition-mediated hydrogel swelling controlled by interaction with a negative thermoresponsive LCST polymer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Most polymeric thermoresponsive hydrogels contract upon heating beyond the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of the polymers used. Herein, we report a supramolecular hydrogel system that shows the opposite temperature dependence.

Supramolecularly Designed Thermoresponsive Polymers in Different Polymer Backbones [PDF]

open access: yesMacromolecular Chemistry and Physics, 2020
AbstractThermoresponsive polymers in water, for example, poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) are investigated extensively, due to a wide range of biomedical applications. However, the attempts to control thermoresponsiveness are still rare in less or nonpolar media.

Thermoresponsive micropatterned substrates for single cell studies.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
We describe the design of micropatterned surfaces for single cell studies, based on thermoresponsive polymer brushes. We show that brushes made of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) grafted at high surface density display excellent protein and cell anti ...
