From self - organizing polymers to nano - and biomaterials {
نویسندگان
چکیده
By self-organization polymers form a large number of superstructures with characteristic dimensions in the range of a few nanometers up to several micrometers. They can be used to produce in a controlled way a wide range of nano-and microstructured materials such as nanoparticles, nanoporous materials and drug carriers. Applications in the fields of materials science, electronics, molecular biology and pharmacy are being investigated.

From self-organizing polymers to nanohybrid and biomaterials.
Block copolymers form a large number of superlattices with characteristic dimensions in the range of a few nanometers up to several micrometers by self-organization. The interplay of supramolecular physics and chemistry opens up new approaches to the production of inorganic, organic, and biological structures and to their integration into functional units. Possible applications in the fields of...
متن کاملInvited Review Building Fibrous Biomaterials From a-Helical and Collagen-Like Coiled-Coil Peptides
T he study of peptideand protein-based biomaterials is of interest in itself because it probes and advances basic understanding of how natural biomaterials are constructed and used in biology. In addition, the successful development of new biomaterials presents new possibilities for applications in biotechnology and synthetic biology, such as templating inorganic materials that might lead to ne...
متن کاملSelf-defensive nano-assemblies from camptothecin-based antitumor drugs.
Camptothecin (CPT)-based drugs always undergo the reversible, pH-dependent lactone ring-opening reaction, yielding the inactive but toxic carboxylate form. Self-assembly strategy provides an effective route for preserving their bio-stability. In this article, nano-sized self-assemblies from CPT-based antitumor drugs were simply built up by directly diluting the stock dimethylsulfoxide solutions...
متن کاملDEVELOPMENT OF HARDNESS IN A Fe- BASED NANO-COMPOSITE ALLOY
Achieving extreme hardness in the newly synthetic steel formed by converting from initial amorphous state to subse-quent crystalline structure –named as devitrification process- was studied in this research work. Results of TEM observa-tions and XRD tests showed that crystallized microstructure were made up four different nano-scale phases i.e., α-Fe, Fe 36 Cr12 Mo10 , Fe 3 C and Fe3 B. More, V...
متن کاملIn-silico prediction of Cellular Responses to Polymeric Biomaterials from Their Molecular Descriptors
In this work quantitative structure activity relationship (QSAR) methodology was applied for modeling and prediction of cellular response to polymers that have been designed for tissue engineering. After calculation and screening of molecular descriptors, linear and nonlinear models were developed by using multiple linear regressions (MLR) and artificial neural network (ANN) methods. The root m...
