Journal ArticleDOI

Interaction of Gold Nanoparticles with Common Human Blood Proteins

TL;DR: It is found that the gold NPs strongly associate with these essential blood proteins where the binding constant, K, as well as the degree of cooperativity of particle--protein binding (Hill constant, n), depends on particle size and the native protein structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

"Click" reactions: a versatile toolbox for the synthesis of peptide-conjugates

TL;DR: A comprehensive understanding of "click" reactions aims to provide insight on how one might choose suitable " click" reactions to constitute peptide-functionalized molecules/surfaces/matrices for the development of advanced biomaterials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of the quality of aqueous dispersions of single wall carbon nanotubes using surfactants and biomolecules.

TL;DR: A quantitative comparison of the relative ability of "wrapping polymers" including oligonucleotides, peptides, lignin, chitosan, and cellulose and surfactants such as cholates, ionic liquids, and organosulfates to disperse SWCNTs in water is reported.
Journal ArticleDOI

Degradable Adhesives for Surgery and Tissue Engineering.

TL;DR: This review highlights the research on degradable polymeric tissue adhesives for surgery and tissue engineering with a comprehensive listing of specific uses, advantages, and disadvantages of different adhesive groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

An assessment of the effects of shell cross-linked nanoparticle size, core composition, and surface PEGylation on in vivo biodistribution.

TL;DR: It is found that small diameter SCKs possessing a polystyrene core showed the most favorable biological behavior in terms of prolonged blood retention and low liver accumulation.
