We report the use of phenolic functional groups lignosulfonate to impart antioxidant properties and cell binding domains gelatin enhance adhesion for poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-based scaffolds. Chemoselective thiol–ene chemistry was utilized form composites with thiolated (TLS) methacrylated fish (fGelMA). Antioxidant TLS were not altered after thiolation levels antioxidation comparable those ...

The mixed SAM obtained by the self-assembly of the monothiolated calix[4]crown-5 receptor 1 and the subsequent addition of the thiolated alkylferrocene guest 3 was characterized at the molecular scale by the favorable receptor-guest interactions by using cyclic voltammetry (CV).

UiO-66 and analogues were successfully tailored to chemoselectively capture AsV oxyanions at the hydroxylated node and neutral AsIII species with the thiolated organic linkers. More efficient and faster uptake can be achieved with increasing defect densities, increasing pore aperture sizes, and decreasing particle sizes.

Self-assembled thiolated Ag nanoclusters (NCs) were facilely synthesized through one-pot microwave-assisted reaction. By the mechanism of aggregation induced emission, the quantum yield of the AgNCs is as high as 25.6%. The as-prepared AgNCs give access to intriguing photophysical features and multicolour emission, which are found to be related to their fascinating supramolecular structures.

Thiolated β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) has the potential to enhance mucoadhesive and permeation enhancing properties on ocular mucosa. β-CD was synthesized via replacement of all primary hydroxyl groups backbone by halogen followed substitution with thiol groups. The structure confirmed FT-IR 1H NMR spectroscopy. CD characterized for hemolytic effect, irritation, solubility enhancement, viscoelastic b...

The 2-iminothiolane reaction with protein amino groups adds a spacer arm ending with a thiol group, which can be further treated with molecules carrying a maleimido ring. This approach is currently used for the preparation of a candidate 'blood substitute' in which human Hb (haemoglobin) is conjugated with long chains of PEG [poly(ethylene glycol)]. To identify the thiolation sites by MS, we ha...

We report an anomalous phenomenon in Pt supported on thiolated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (Pt-S-MWNT): oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity increases with accelerated durability test (ADT) cycles. Sub-nanometer-sized Pt clusters on S-MWNT were gradually agglomerated to an optimal size with ADT cycles, and finally showed increased ORR activity after the ADT.

We developed a new building block for a protein- and cell-repellant self-assembled monolayer (SAM) from 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine (MPC) via a simple Michael-type addition to one mercapto group in alkanedithiol. The thiolated MPC can enable functionalization of a noble metal electrode to minimize noise signal in biosensing.
