Polyimide foams derived from a high Tg polyimide with grafted poly(α- methylstyrene)
A new route to high-Tg, thermally stable polyimide foams has been developed. Foams were prepared by casting microphase-separated graft copolymers comprising a thermally stable main chain, polyimide, and a thermally labile graft, poly(α-methylstyrene). The copolymer compositions were designed so that the thermally labile block would be the dispersed phase. This can unzip to its monomer upon heat...
متن کاملThe effect of high sugar intake on the esterification of dihydroxyacetone phosphate by rat liver microsomes.
Rat liver microsomes were used as an enzyme source to study dietary-induced changes in the rate of dihydroxyacetone phosphate esterification. Rats were fed (1) 75% glucose or fructose diets for various time intervals, or (2) fed a fractose diet for six days and then a chow diet. Both the glucose and fructose diets produced a 2--3-fold increase in total and neutral glycerolipid formation from di...
متن کاملHydrophilic Polycarbonates: Promising Degradable Alternatives to Poly(ethylene glycol)-Based Stealth Materials
Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) represents the gold standard for stealth polymers in polymer-based therapeutic delivery. Unfortunately, PEG has some limitations which warrant the examination of alternative polymers. High molecular weight PEG (>40 kDa) can accumulate in tissue, and in some patients, PEG can provoke an immunological response and/or an accelerated blood clearance upon repeated exposur...
متن کاملCellular response to phase-separated blends of tyrosine-derived polycarbonates.
Two-dimensional thin films consisting of homopolymer and discrete compositional blends of tyrosine-derived polycarbonates were prepared and characterized in an effort to elucidate the nature of different cell responses that were measured in vitro. The structurally similar blends were found to phase separate after annealing with domain sizes dependent on the overall composition. The thin polymer...
متن کاملDegradable hydrogels derived from PEG‐diacrylamide for hepatic tissue engineering
Engineered tissue constructs have the potential to augment or replace whole organ transplantation for the treatment of liver failure. Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-based systems are particularly promising for the construction of engineered liver tissue due to their biocompatibility and amenability to modular addition of bioactive factors. To date, primary hepatocytes have been successfully encaps...
