Functionalization of Cellulose: Synthesis of Water-soluble Cationic Cellulose Derivatives
One of the trends of modern cellulose chemistry is the functionalization of known cellulose derivatives in order to expand their application area. In this work, water-soluble cationic cellulose derivatives containing up to 4% coupled nitrogen were obtained by the amination of hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC) with two different etherification agents, diethylepoxypropylamine (DEEPA) and (2-chlorethyl)...
متن کاملFacile Surface Functionalization of Hydrophobic Magnetic Nanoparticles
Nonpolar phase synthesized hydrophobic nanocrystals show attractive properties and have demonstrated prominent potential in biomedical applications. However, the preparation of biocompatible nanocrystals is made difficult by the presence of hydrophobic surfactant stabilizer on their surfaces. To address this limitation, we have developed a facile, high efficiency, single-phase and low-cost meth...
متن کاملThermodynamics of interactions of water-soluble porphyrins with RNA duplexes.
We characterized the interactions of meso-tetrakis(4N-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyridinium-4-yl) porphyrin (TEtOHPyP4), meso-tetrakis(4N-allylpyridinium-4-yl) porphyrin (TAlPyP4), and meso-tetrakis(4N-metallylpyridinium-4-yl) porphyrin (TMetAlPyP4) with the poly(rA)poly(rU) and poly(rI)poly(rC) RNA duplexes between 18 and 45 degrees C by employing circular dichroism, light absorption, and fluorescence in...
متن کاملLipid-insertion enables targeting functionalization of erythrocyte membrane-cloaked nanoparticles.
RBC membrane-cloaked polymeric nanoparticles represent an emerging nanocarrier platform with extended circulation in vivo. A lipid-insertion method is employed to functionalize these nanoparticles without the need for direct chemical conjugation. Insertion of both folate and the nucleolin-targeting aptamer AS1411 shows receptor-specific targeting against model cancer cell lines.
متن کاملNoncovalent functionalization of single-walled carbon nanotubes with water-soluble porphyrins.
We have employed water-soluble porphyrin molecules [meso-(tetrakis-4-sulfonatophenyl) porphine dihydrochloride] to solubilize single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), resulting in aqueous solutions that are stable for several weeks. The porphyrin-nanotube complexes have been characterized with absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy and with AFM. We find that the porphyrin/SWNT interaction is s...
