I and i
TL;DR: There is, I think, something ethereal about i —the square root of minus one, which seems an odd beast at that time—an intruder hovering on the edge of reality.

Poly(glycoamidoamine)s: a broad class of carbohydrate-containing polycations for nucleic acid delivery
TL;DR: The general design of this PGAA class of delivery vehicles consists of carbohydrate residues copolymerized with oligoethyleneamine units, which have proven to be an effective motif that promotes polyplex formation, efficient cellular internalization, high gene expression and low cytotoxicity with cultured cell lines and primary cell types.
