Martien A. Cohen Stuart,Wilhelm T. S. Huck,Jan Genzer,Marcus Müller,Christopher K. Ober,Manfred Stamm,Gleb B. Sukhorukov,Igal Szleifer,Vladimir V. Tsukruk,Marek W. Urban,Françoise M. Winnik,Stefan Zauscher,Igor Luzinov,Sergiy Minko +13 more
TL;DR: This work reviews recent advances and challenges in the developments towards applications of stimuli-responsive polymeric materials that are self-assembled from nanostructured building blocks and provides a critical outline of emerging developments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differences in subcellular distribution and toxicity of green and red emitting CdTe quantum dots
Jasmina Lovrić,Hassan S. Bazzi,Yan Cuie,Genevieve Fortin,Françoise M. Winnik,Dusica Maysinger +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that the size of QDs contributes to their subcellular distribution and that drugs can alter QD-induced cytotoxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) Phase Diagrams: Fifty Years of Research.
Avraham Halperin,Avraham Halperin,Martin Kröger,Françoise M. Winnik,Françoise M. Winnik,Françoise M. Winnik +5 more
TL;DR: The reported phase diagrams of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) are surveyed, the differences and comment on theoretical ideas regarding their possible origins are discussed, and open questions in this reputably mature domain are alerted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unmodified Cadmium Telluride Quantum Dots Induce Reactive Oxygen Species Formation Leading to Multiple Organelle Damage and Cell Death
TL;DR: It is shown that "naked" QDs induce damage to the plasma membrane, mitochondrion, and nucleus, leading to cell death, suggesting the critical role of several subcellular compartments in QD-induced cytotoxicity and point toward multiple molecular targets in nonclassical apoptosis.
Book ChapterDOI
Non-ionic Thermoresponsive Polymers in Water
TL;DR: A systematic compilation of the polymers reported to exhibit thermoresponsive behavior is presented in this article, including N-substituted poly((meth)acrylamide)s, poly(N-vinylamide), poly(oxazoline), polymers based on amphiphilic balance, and elastin-like synthetic polymers.
