Hydrogels for Biomacromolecule Immobilization and Sensing
… that have utility for pH-responsive valves, biomacromolecule sensing, irreversible biomacromolecule immobilization, and reversible biomacromolecule immobilization. Each system discussed has its function derived from a novel fabrication protocol or through the development of new hybrid polymer …

Studies of Biomacromolecule Adsorption and Activity at Solid Surfaces by Surface Plasmon Resonance and Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation Monitoring
Self-assembly of polysaccharide derivatives at liquid/solid interfaces was studied by surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy (SPR) and quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D). Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) adsorption onto cellulose surfaces from aqueous solutions was …

Injectable hydrogels for the improved delivery of treatments in spinal cord injury
… available to reverse paralysis, a number of biomacromolecule drug candidates in the form of proteins, enzymes and monoclonal antibodies have demonstrated restoration of function in studies with SC animal models. However, the inability to address drug formulation stability issues and overcome …

Metal-Organic Frameworks as a Platform for Therapeutic Delivery
… the “burst release effect,” 2) protect a fragile biomacromolecule from degradation and deliver it successfully intracellularly, and 3) exhibit high levels of biocompatibility. Two zirconium-based MOFs (called NU-1000 and NU-901) that exhibit exceptional pore dimensions and chemical stability, …

Use of poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) cryogelation for tissue engineering: composites, scaffold formation and cell encapsulation
… conditions can be attained. In this study, PVA/Biomacromolecule composite cryogels were produced with a two step physical crosslinking (cryogelation and coagulation bath treatment) in the presence of different additives and a novel procedure to produce cell encapsulated PVA cryogels was …

Bridging Mesoscale Phenomena and Macroscopic Properties in Block Copolymers Containing Ionic Interactions and Hydrogen Bonding
… thermoplastic elastomers, and reversible biomacromolecule binding. The relationship between non-covalent interaction promoted mesoscale phenomenon (such as morphology) and consequent macroscopic physical properties is the key to optimize material design and improve end-use performance for …

New water-soluble porphyrins for oxygen sensing in protein-based materials
… group to allow conjugation to a support (e.g., a biomacromolecule supporting the 3D cell construct) to avoid leaching and cell uptake, and (3) water-solubility to allow conjugation in aqueous solutions. We first focused our attention on the synthesis of tetra meso-substituted porphyrins bearing a …

Spatiotemporal Signatures of Elastoinertial Turbulence
… study aqueous solutions of a typical long chain biomacromolecule (Xanthan gum) in canonical shear and extensional flows and quantify how the rheological properties can be tuned by changing the ionic strength of the solvent. In steady shear flow, increasing the biopolymer concentration …
