An insulin-sensing sugar-based fluorescent hydrogel.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have prepared a small library of amphiphiles, each comprising a polar carbohydrate head group attached through an N-terminal amino acid to a nonpolar pyrene tail group. One of these derivatives is sensitive to the presence of insulin in aqueous media.

Cytotoxity Assessment of Gold Nanoparticle-Chitosan Hydrogel Nanocomposite as an Efficient Support for Cell Immobilization: toward Sensing Application
Cell-based biosensors have become a research hotspot in biosensors and bioelectronics fields. The main feature of cell-based biosensors is the immobilization of living cell on the surface of transducers. Different types of polymers which are used as scaffolds for cell growth should be biocompatible and have reactive functional groups for further attachment of biomolecules. In this work, the cel...
متن کاملSequential Assembly of the Functional Material Micropatterns on the Hydrogel Sheet for Constructing Skeletal Muscle Cell-based Assay System
The functional material micropatterns-assembled hydrogel sheet has been prepared by means of sequential transfer technique to construct the skeletal muscle cell-based assay system. We demonstrated to construct micropatterned synaptic connection between motor neurons-skeletal muscle cells using this technique. Besides, assembly of the non-biological functional materials has also advantage to con...
متن کاملLight-guiding hydrogels for cell-based sensing and optogenetic synthesis in vivo
Polymer hydrogels are widely used as cell scaffolds for biomedical applications. While the biochemical and biophysical properties of hydrogels have been extensively investigated, little attention has been paid to their potential photonic functionalities. Here, we report cell-integrated polyethylene glycol-based hydrogels for in-vivo optical sensing and therapy applications. Hydrogel patches con...
متن کاملBiocompatible fluorescent supramolecular nanofibrous hydrogel for long-term cell tracking and tumor imaging applications
Biocompatible peptide-based supramolecular hydrogel has recently emerged as a new and promising system for biomedical applications. In this work, Rhodamine B is employed as a new capping group of self-assembling peptide, which not only provides the driving force for supramolecular nanofibrous hydrogel formation, but also endows the hydrogel with intrinsic fluroescence signal, allowing for vario...
متن کاملSelective Dna Sensing Elements Integrated into Microfluidic Channels
This paper describes the development of a unique fluorescence based DNA diagnostic assay that does not require labeling of the target sequence prior to analysis. The assay uses polyacrylamide hydrogel plugs immobilized in microfluidic channels, and is based on the displacement of a short sacrificial fluorescent-tagged indicator oligomer by a longer untagged target sequence as it is electrophore...
