Visible light-initiated interfacial thiol-norbornene photopolymerization for forming islet surface conformal coating.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A cytocompatible visible light-mediated interfacial thiol-norbornene photopolymerization scheme was developed for creating hydrogel conformal coating on pancreatic islets. The step-growth thiol-norbornene reaction affords high consistency and tunability in gel coating thickness. Furthermore, isolated islets coated with thiol-norbornene gel maintained their viability and function in vitro.

Visible-light-initiated thiol-acrylate photopolymerization of heparin-based hydrogels.
An in situ heparin-based forming hydrogel that cures under visible-light is formulated using eosin Y as a photoinitiator with triethanolamine as an electron donor to initiate reaction of thiolated-heparin with acrylate-ended poly(ethylene glycol). Formulations and irradiation conditions are presented for control of heparin content (1.6 to 3.3% w/v), modulus (100-10,000 Pa), and gelation time (3...
متن کاملPhotochromic spiropyran- and spirooxazine-homopolymers in mesoporous thin films by surface initiated ROMP
The control of ionic permselectivity in porous films is an interesting aspect in the context of lab-on-chip devices and m-electronics. Especially, visible light triggered ionic permselectivity control is of relevance because control by light can be maintained externally without changing internal system parameters. In addition, light is a sustainable energy source if sunlight is used. Here, we p...
متن کاملGraphene Oxide-Polymer Composite Langmuir Films Constructed by Interfacial Thiol-Ene Photopolymerization
The effective synthesis and self-assembly of graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposites are of key importance for a broad range of nanomaterial applications. In this work, a one-step chemical strategy is presented to synthesize stable GO-polymer Langmuir composite films by interfacial thiol-ene photopolymerization at room temperature, without use of any crosslinking agents and stabilizing agents. It is...
متن کاملVisible-light-driven superhydrophilicity by interfacial charge transfer between metal ions and metal oxide nanostructures.
Single-crystalline rutile nanorods were synthesized by a facile acid treatment on titanate nanotubes. These rutile nanorods could be highly dispersed in water to form a stable colloidal solution. Cu(2+) ions were grafted onto these rutile nanorods, and the Cu(2+)-grafted nanorods could absorb visible light by the interfacial charge transfer between the valence band of rutile TiO(2) and surface-...
متن کاملNanoporous block copolymer films using highly selective solvents and non-solvent extraction.
Nanoporous block copolymer thin films are fabricated by selective solvent swelling of the majority phase and subsequent rapid extraction with a miscible non-solvent (water). Selection of the initial solvent provides a facile route to tune the porosity of the films. Poly(butylnorbornene)-block-poly(hydroxyhexafluoroisopropyl norbornene) (BuHFA) is used to generate these porous thin films due to ...
