Erosion kinetics of hydrolytically degradable polymers.
Degradable polymers are beginning to play an increasing role as materials for environmental and medical applications. Understanding factors that control erosion, such as bond cleavage and the dissolution and diffusion of degradation products, will be critical to the future development of these materials. Erosion kinetics, photomicroscopy, and infrared spectroscopy were used to understand the er...
متن کاملNew synthetic approaches to prepare degradable polymers
This thesis is concerned with the synthesis of acid labile co-polymers. Two polymer systems were examined (1) polyacetals and (2) poly(ortho esters). As for poly(ortho esters), there is a need for better synthetic methods to prepare these polymers more easily without the need of stringent anhydrous conditions, with more broad structural variation, and in a more cost effective manner. Pendent fu...

متن کاملDiet composition, not calorie intake, rapidly alters intrinsic excitability of hypothalamic AgRP/NPY neurons in mice
Obesity is a chronic condition resulting from a long-term pattern of poor diet and lifestyle. Long-term consumption of high-fat diet (HFD) leads to persistent activation and leptin resistance in AgRP neurons in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus (ARH). Here, for the first time, we demonstrate acute effects of HFD on AgRP neuronal excitability and highlight a critical role for diet composit...
متن کاملNatural Degradation of Polymers
Polymers are a broad class of materials which are made from repeating units of smaller molecules called monomers. Polymers can be natural in origin, such as the lignin of tree branches, the starches of homemade bread, or the chitin of lobster shells. Other polymers are called synthetic, because they are made by humans from naturally-occurring materials. Examples include polyesters used in cloth...
