Brushlike interactions between thermoresponsive microgel particles.
Using a simplified microstructural picture we show that interactions between thermosensitive microgel particles can be described by a polymer brushlike corona decorating the dense core. The softness of the potential is set by the relative thickness L0 of the compliant corona with respect to the overall size of the swollen particle R. The elastic modulus in quenched solid phases derived from the...
متن کاملInner structure of adsorbed ionic microgel particles.
Microgel particles of cross-linked poly(NIPAM-co-acrylic acid) with different acrylic acid contents are investigated in solution and in the adsorbed state. As a substrate, silicon with a poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) coating is used. The temperature dependence of the deswelling of the microgel particles was probed with atomic force microscopy (AFM). The inner structure of the adsorbed mi...
متن کاملCarbonaceous particles reduce marine microgel formation
An increase in ambient carbonaceous particle (CNP) levels has been found, potentially leading to significant environmental/health hazards. These particles will ultimately enter the oceanic environment and interact with dissolved organic carbon. However, a detailed mechanistic understanding of their behavior, transport, and fate in marine systems is still much needed. This study, using carbon bl...
متن کاملAptamer-functionalized microgel particles for protein detection.
Highly sensitive and multiplexed detection of clinically relevant proteins in biologically complex samples is crucial for the advancement of clinical proteomics. In recent years, aptamers have emerged as useful tools for protein analysis due to their specificity and affinity for protein targets as well as their compatibility with particle-based detection systems. In this study, we demonstrate t...
