PEGylated Nanoceria as Radical Scavenger with Tunable Redox Chemistry

Reduced graphene oxide enhances horseradish peroxidase stability by serving as radical scavenger and redox mediator

Article history: Received 14 May 2015 Received in revised form 5 July 2015 Accepted 8 July 2015 Available online 9 July 2015 Graphene-based nanomaterials have been widely studied as high-performance matrices for enzyme immobilization and in the development of biosensors. Surface O-functionalities of graphene induce changes in chemical reactivity and electronic conductivity of nanomaterials and ...

Calixtyrosol: a Novel Calixarene Based Potent Radical Scavenger

The oxidative stress causes many diseases in human, therefore antioxidants have a specialposition in the medicinal chemistry. Tyrosol is an important antioxidant with a plenty ofbiological properties. There are many strategies such as clustering single drug units in orderto develop new drugs. The cluster effect can increase drug effects relative to single drug unit.Calixtyrosol is the novel clu...

PEGylated Fluorescent Nanoparticles from One-Pot Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization and “Click Chemistry”

The preparation of PEGylated fluorescent nanoparticles (NPs) based on atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and “click chemistry” in one-pot synthesis is presented. First, poly(p-chloromethyl styrene-alt-N-propargylmaleimide) (P(CMS-alt-NPM)) copolymer was prepared via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. Subsequently, the azido-containing fluorene-based...
