Simulation and Experimental Assembly of DNA-Graft Copolymer Micelles with Controlled Morphology.
Nanoparticles formed through complexation of plasmid DNA and copolymers are promising gene-delivery vectors, offering a wide range of advantages over alternative delivery strategies. Notably, recent research has shown that the shape of these particles can be tuned, which makes it possible to gain understanding of their shape-dependent transfection properties. Whereas earlier methods achieved sh...
متن کاملControlled hydrophobic functionalization of natural fibers through self-assembly of amphiphilic diblock copolymer micelles.
The functionalization of natural fibers is an important task that has recently received considerable attention. We investigated the formation of a hydrophobic layer from amphiphilic diblock copolymer micelles [polystyrene-block-poly(N-methyl-4-vinyl pyridinium iodide)] on natural fibers and on a model surface (mica). A series of micelles were prepared. The micelles were characterized by using c...
متن کاملsimulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water
abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...
Cylindrical block copolymer micelles and co-micelles of controlled length and architecture.
Block copolymers consist of two or more chemically different polymers connected by covalent linkages. In solution, repulsion between the blocks leads to a variety of morphologies, which are thermodynamically driven. Polyferrocenyldimethylsilane block copolymers show an unusual propensity to forming cylindrical micelles in solution. We found that the micelle structure grows epitaxially through t...
متن کاملControlled interfacial assembly and transfer of brushlike copolymer films.
The self-assembly and compression of polybutadiene-bpoly(ethylene oxide) (PBd-PEO) at the air/water interface enables control over surface density, height, and film structure. Interfacial transfer was performed by a combination of Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) and Langmuir-Schaefer (LS) techniques, resulting in monolayer and bilayer films. Ellipsometry and wettability results were used to characterize...
