TL;DR: This work presents the first examples of rationally designed and fully characterized self-assembling hydrogels based on standard linear peptides with purely α-helical structures, which it is demonstrated that support both growth and differentiation of rat adrenal pheochromocytoma cells for sustained periods in culture.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new method for maintaining homogeneity during liquid–hydrogel transitions using low molecular weight hydrogelators
TL;DR: In this paper, a generic approach to produce homogeneous and reproducible hydrogels from low molecular weight hydrogelators using the controlled hydrolysis of glucono-δ-lactone (GdL) was demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Origin of stabilisation of aqueous foams in nanoparticle–surfactant mixtures
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed investigation into the behavior of air-in-water foams stabilised by a mixture of silica nanoparticles and pure cationic surfactant has been made.
Journal ArticleDOI
Controlled release from modified amino acid hydrogels governed by molecular size or network dynamics.
TL;DR: The frequency-dependent behavior of the hydrogels demonstrates that Fmoc-tyrosine shows the classic response of a strong gel with a storage modulus that is nearly independent of frequency, however, for F moc-phenylalanine, the frequency dependence of moduli is very strong and very similar to that displayed by a transient network.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shear thickening of an emulsion stabilized with hydrophilic silica particles
TL;DR: In this paper, the flow behavior of particle stabilized oil-in-water emulsions with different dispersed volume fractions was analyzed in steady shear on a rotational rheometer employing a coaxial cylinder geometry.
