The influence of polymer molecular weight in lamellar gels based on PEG-lipids.
We report x-ray scattering, rheological, and freeze-fracture and polarizing microscopy studies of a liquid crystalline hydrogel called Lalpha,g. The hydrogel, found in DMPC, pentanol, water, and PEG-DMPE mixtures, differs from traditional hydrogels, which require high MW polymer, are disordered, and gel only at polymer concentrations exceeding an "overlap" concentration. In contrast, the Lalpha...
متن کاملPoly (Vinylidene Fluride) Membrane Preparation and Characterization: Effects of Mixed Solvents and PEG Molecular Weight
In this study, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) ultrafiltration membranes were prepared via immersion precipitation method using a mixture of two solvents triethyl phosphate (TEP) and dimethylacetamide (DMAc), which had different affinities with the nonsolvent (water). Properties of the prepared membranes were characterized using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and contact angle and membrane p...
متن کاملPeg Lateral Incisor Can Present Aesthetic Challenge Peg Lateral Incisors: Treatment and Positioning
Malformed or congenitally missing teeth are a problem often faced by both orthodontists and restorative dentists. Between 1% and 2% of the population will exhibit a shape modification of the maxillary lateral incisor commonly referred to as a peg lateral. The inheritance of the peg-shaped lateral incisors has been associated with the genotype that causes missing lateral incisors, and the shape ...
متن کاملDiffusion and interaction in PEG-DA hydrogels.
Polyethylenglycol (PEG) hydrogels are widely used as tuneable substrates for biological and technical applications due to their good biocompatibility and their high hydrophilicity. Here we compare the mesh size and diffusion characteristics of PEG hydrogels by analyzing the diffusion of solutes with different, well-defined sizes over long and short time scales. Interestingly, one can tune the m...
متن کاملEffects of a synthetic PEG-ylated Tie-2 agonist peptide on endotoxemic lung injury and mortality.
A synthetic 7-mer, HHHRHSF, was recently identified by screening a phage display library for binding to the Tie-2 receptor. A polyethylene-oxide clustered version of this peptide, termed vasculotide (VT), was reported to activate Tie-2 and promote angiogenesis in a mouse model of diabetic ulcer. We hypothesized that VT administration would defend endothelial barrier function against sepsis-asso...
