Surface modification of mammalian cells with stimuli-responsive polymers.
نویسندگان
چکیده
In order to introduce alternative functions into mammalian cells and control them under ambient conditions, poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) (PNIPAM) was immobilized on the cell surface. Cellular aggregation could be regulated by temperature change. In addition, separation of PNIPAM-conjugated glycoproteins was successfully performed.

A short review on Ferrofluids surface modification by natural and biocompatible polymers
This paper provides an overview of how the surface properties of ferromagnetic nanoparticles dispersed in fluids is modified by natural and biocompatible polymers. Among common magnetic nanoparticles, magnetite (Fe3O4) and maghemite (g-Fe203) are popular candidates because of their biocompatibility. Natural polymeric coating materials are the most commonly used biocompatible magnetic nanopartic...
متن کاملPlasma can reduce Staphylococcus epidermidis biofilm formation on medical polymers
Medical polymers, such as urinary catheters are widely used biomaterials. One of the main problem for using the urinary catheters is biofilm formation on their surface, when they are used in a long time in the body. Virulence and pathogenicity of Staphylococcus epidermidis is often enhanced when growing as a biofilm. Many techniques have been presented to reduce the biofilm formation by surface...
متن کاملCucurbit[8]uril directed stimuli-responsive supramolecular polymer brushes for dynamic surface engineering.
In situ modification of surfaces with thin layers of polymers is of growing interest as adjustment of surface properties can be made on demand. We present herein a supramolecular 'grafting to' polymer brush via the recognition of surface-bound cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) rotaxanes towards end-functionalised polyethylene glycol (PEG). This dynamic supramolecular method represents advantages over tra...
متن کاملDual Nano-Carriers using Polylactide-block-Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-random-acrylic acid) Polymerized from Reduced Graphene Oxide Surface for Doxorubicin Delivery Applications
The stimuli-responsive nanocomposites were designed as drug delivery nanocarriers. Thanks to promising properties such as large surface area and easy chemical functionalization, the graphene derivatives can be used for the drug delivery applications. For this purpose, in the current work, the poly(L,D-lactide)-block-poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-rand-acrylic acid) grafted from reduced graphene oxi...
متن کاملHeterogeneous Functionalization of Polyethersulfone: A New Approach for pH-Responsive Microfiltration Membranes with Enhanced Antifouling Properties
In this work, 2,2’-azo-bis-butyronitrile (AIBN) was exploited as an initiator for the successful bulk heterogeneous functionalization of polyethersulfone (PES) using polymethacrylic acid (PMAA), for the first time. To this end, pH-responsive and exceptionally low fouling membranes of extremely low grafting degrees with low adhesion and high rejection of protein were fabricated. An added advanta...
