LCST-type phase behavior of poly(2-chloroethyl vinyl ether-alt-maleic anhydride) in n-butyl acetate

Separator Membrane from Crosslinked Poly(Vinyl Alcohol) and Poly(Methyl Vinyl Ether-alt-Maleic Anhydride)

In this work, we report separator membranes from crosslinking of two polymers, such as poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) with an ionic polymer poly(methyl vinyl ether-alt-maleic anhydride) (PMVE-MA). Such interpolymer-networked systems were extensively used for biomedical and desalination applications but they were not examined for their potential use as membranes or separators for batteries. Therefore,...

Preparation of Poly-(Methyl vinyl ether-co-maleic Anhydride) Nanoparticles by Solution-Enhanced Dispersion by Supercritical CO2

The supercritical CO2-based technologies have been widely used in the formation of drug and/or polymer particles for biomedical applications. In this study, nanoparticles of poly-(methyl vinyl ether-co-maleic anhydride) (PVM/MA) were successfully fabricated by a process of solution-enhanced dispersion by supercritical CO2 (SEDS). A 2 factorial experiment was designed to investigate and identify...

synthesis of poly(methy vinyl ether-alt-maleic acid)/pluronic f127 co-polymer used in drug delivery

pH-responsive poly(styrene-alt-maleic anhydride) alkylamide copolymers for intracellular drug delivery.

Many macromolecular therapeutics such as peptides, proteins, antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (ASODN), and short interfering RNA (siRNA) are active only in the cytoplasm or nucleus of targeted cells. Endocytosis is the primary route for cellular uptake of these molecules, which results in their accumulation in the endosomal-lysosomal trafficking pathway and loss of therapeutic activity. In this ...

Enhancement of primary antigen-specific resistance in infant mice with divinyl ether-maleic anhydride.

The early response of infant mice to foot-and-mouth disease viral antigens, measured by greater resistance and increased serum-neutralizing antibody, was enhanced by divinyl ether-maleic anhydride (DVE/MA). Preparations of known antigen concentration were used to study various parameters influencing this enhancement. Resistance and antibody levels were increased when DVE/MA was administered wit...
