Derleme Makalesi POLYELECTROLYTES AND IST BIOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
The interaction of polymers having the characteristics of synthetic or natural, biocompatible and biodegradable polyelectrolytes with biomolecules exhibits the presence of biologically important mechanisms and has a great importance for biomedical uses. Researches about artificial immunization systems are still continuing thanks to the adjuvant effect which stimulates the immunity and which is ...
متن کاملCharge Interactions in Cylindrical Polyelectrolytes
The Debye-Huckel equation is solved for the electrostatic interaction of point charges on the surface of a dielectric cylinder immersed in salt water. Numerical results are given for the potential as a function of axial separation for charges on the same side and on opposite sides of the cylinder, and for two values of the Debye screening length: infinity and unity, in units of the cylinder rad...
متن کاملConformations and interactions of star-branched polyelectrolytes.
Combining monomer-resolved molecular dynamics simulations with a theory based on a variational free energy, we calculate the conformational properties and the effective interactions of star-branched polyelectrolytes for a large variety of arm numbers, degrees of polymerization, and charge fractions, with and without added salt. We find quantitative agreement between theory and simulation and pu...
متن کاملMultiscale modeling of dendrimers and their interactions with bilayers and polyelectrolytes.
Recent advances in molecular dynamics simulation methodologies and computational power have allowed accurate predictions of dendrimer size, shape, and interactions with bilayers and polyelectrolytes with modest computational effort. Atomistic and coarse-grained (CG) models show strong interactions of cationic dendrimers with lipid bilayers. The CG simulations with explicit lipid and water captu...
متن کاملInteractions of platinum metals and their complexes in biological systems.
Platinum-metal oxidation catalysts are to be introduced in exhaust systems of many 1975 model-year automobiles in the U.S. to meet Clean Air Act standards. Small quantities of finely divided catalyst have been found issuing from prototype systems; platinum and palladium compounds may be found also. Although platinum exhibits a remarkable resistance to oxidation and chemical attack, it reacts ch...
