Journal ArticleDOI

Modification of Gold Surfaces With Water-Soluble (Co)polymers Prepared Via Aqueous Reversible Addition-Fragmentation Chain Transfer (RAFT) Polymerization

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the immobilization of poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate), poly((ar-vinylbenzyl) trimethylammonium chloride), poly(N,N-dimethylacrylamide), and poly(3-[2-(N-methylacrylido)-ethyldimethyl ammonio]propane sulfonate-b-N, N-dimethylamide) onto gold films.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spectroscopic evidence for amyloid-like interfacial self-assembly of hydrophobin Sc3.

TL;DR: It is concluded that Sc3, and probably other hydrophobins too, self-assemble at interfaces in the same manner as amyloidogenic proteins, i.e., through beta-sheet stacking.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural Characterization and Solution Properties of a Galacturonate Polysaccharide Derived from Aloe vera Capable of in Situ Gelation

TL;DR: In this article, a series of highly purified galacturonate polysaccharides have been extracted from the Aloe vera plant and analyzed in terms of chemical composition and molecular weight.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tailoring the network properties of Ca2+ crosslinked Aloe vera polysaccharide hydrogels for in situ release of therapeutic agents.

TL;DR: In this paper, the properties of Aloe vera galacturonate hydrogels formed via Ca(2+) crosslinking have been studied in regard to key parameters influencing gel formation including molecular weight, ionic strength, and molar ratio of Ca( 2+) to COO(-) functionality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental evidence for multiple assembled states of Sc3 from Schizophyllum commune.

TL;DR: A model based on this study and previous literature is proposed that suggests three distinct states of Sc3: soluble Sc3 consisting of unimers or multimers in micelle-like association, interfacially assembled I-Sc3 with highly ordered, stacked beta-sheets, presumably formed in a templated manner at the air/water interface of microscopic bubbles generated by vortexing.
