Hybrid DNA-protein nanogels represent potential protein vectors and enzymatic nanoreactors for modern biotechnology. Here, we describe a new, easy, robust method preparation of tunable with controllable size density. For this purpose, polymerase chain reaction is used to prepare highly biotinylated DNA as soft biopolymeric backbone, which can be efficiently cross-linked via streptavidin-biotin ...

     Production and characterization of soft cross-linked gelatin sponge by using glutaraldehyde for blood hemostasis application, is the goal of this study. Biodegradable hydrogels were prepared through crosslinking of gelatin with glutaraldehyde followed by freeze drying. The effects of gelatin concentration, amount of crosslink agent and freeze drying temperature on mechanical properties and...

Use of a heterobifunctional photoactivatable cross-linker, sulfo-SDA (diazirine), has yielded high-density data that facilitated structure modeling of individual proteins. We expand the photoactivatable chemistry toolbox here with a second reagent, sulfo-SBP (benzophenone). This further increases the density of photo-cross-linking to a factor of 20× over conventional cross-linking. Importantly,...

abstractin the last step of desolvation method for preparation of albumin nanoparticles, glutaraldehyde (ga) is added to stabilize the newly formed nanoparticles. due to undesirable effects of ga, the objective of this study was to evaluate alternative methods of crosslinking including ultraviolet (uv) irradiation, adding of glucose and combination of both methods. the nanoparticles were prepar...
