Developing test strips for naked-eye detection of alpha-hydroxy acids using indicator-displacement assays: an application of molecular recognition
… Two examples are the dihydroxylation of maleic acid and fumaric acid catalyzed by osmium tetroxide in water, and the hydrolysis of D-dimethyl tartrate. The assay employed a receptor that has 1,3,5-trisubstituted-2,4,6- triethylbenzene scaffold incorporating boronic acid and guanidinium …

Polymer Supported Lipid Bilayer Membranes for the Integration of Transmembrane Proteins
… of polymer cushions consisting of alternating maleic acid copolymers. Maleic acid copolymers provide a versatile platform to adjust the physico-chemical behaviour by the choice of the comonomer unit. The formation of sLBMs was triggered by a transient reduction of the electrostatic repulsion …

Chemical Surface Modification of Polycarbonate to Increase Hydrophilicity
… polycarbonate was submerged in poly(acrylic acid-co-maleic acid) (PAA-MAA) solution, heated, rinsed in DI water, and dried with air. PEI introduced more amine groups than PPD, and PAA-MAA uses those amine groups to expose more polar carboxylic acid groups. PEI and PAA-MAA were tested by …
