Storage Moduli and Porosity of Soft PDMS PolyMIPEs Can Be Controlled Independently Using Thiol–Ene Click Chemistry

Post-polymerization functionalization of poly(3,4-propylenedioxythiophene) (PProDOT) via thiolene click chemistry

The surface functionalization of conjugated polymers such as the poly(alkoxythiophenes) poly(3,4ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) and poly(3,4-propylenedioxythiophene) (PProDOT) provides a potential means for systematically tailoring their physical properties. We previously reported the synthesis of an alkene-functionalized 3,4-propylenedioxy-thiophene (ProDOT) derivative that could be readily mo...

Novel cross-linkers for PDMS networks for controlled and well distributed grafting of functionalities by click chemistry

Can tuberculosis be controlled?

BACKGROUND Tuberculosis (TB) is nearly 100% curable. However, the ability of medical and public health interventions to control TB, particularly in developing countries, is often doubted. METHODS We reviewed data for the amenability of TB to control. We considered separately control of deaths, prevalence, rate of infection and incidence. RESULTS Tuberculosis mortality can be reduced by more...

FPGA Can be Implemented Using Advanced Encryption Standard Algorithm

This paper mainly focused on implementation of AES encryption and decryption standard AES-128. All the transformations of both Encryption and Decryption are simulated using an iterativedesign approach in order to minimize the hardware consumption. This method can make it avery low-complex architecture, especially in saving the hardware resource in implementing theAES InverseSub Bytes module and...

Surface Functionalization of Exosomes Using Click Chemistry

A method for conjugation of ligands to the surface of exosomes was developed using click chemistry. Copper-catalyzed azide alkyne cycloaddition (click chemistry) is ideal for biocojugation of small molecules and macromolecules to the surface of exosomes, due to fast reaction times, high specificity, and compatibility in aqueous buffers. Exosomes cross-linked with alkyne groups using carbodiimid...
