In this study, cotton fabrics decorated with Ag/AgCl and Ag/AgBr NPs were produced by a simple hydrothermal treatment using AgCl and AgBr as precursors. Their morphological features as well as, chemical composition and structural and luminescence properties were compared. Their water disinfection aptitude against E. coli and S. aureus was also inve...

Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is a biocompatible synthetic polymer and used in various applications due to its low toxicity and tunable surface properties. However, PDMS does not have any chemical cues for cell binding. Plasma treatment, protein coating or surface modification with various molecules have been used to improve its surface characteristi...

The infiltration of ions into hydrogel matrix could significantly affect the microstructure and macroscopic mechanics of the gels. Here, the Hofmeister effect of various salts on the whey protein isolate hydrogels with fine-stranded and particulate microstructures is investigated by soaking the preformed hydrogels in the sodium salts of different a...

High-resolution atomic force microscopy (AFM) of biomacromolecules is a valuable method for structural studies in biology. Traditionally, the surfaces used for AFM imaging of individual molecules are limited to mica, graphite, and glass. Because these substrates have certain shortcomings, new or modified surfaces that improve the quality of AFM ima...

Recent studies have shown the relevance of growing mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in three-dimensional environments with respect to the monolayer cell culture on an adherent substrate. In this sense, macroporous scaffolds and hydrogels have been used as three-dimensional (3D) supports. In this work, we explored the culture of MSCs in a 3D environmen...

To develop simple and effective nano-drug delivery systems remains a major challenge in cancer treatment. Herein, we synthesized an ortho ester-linked deoxycholic acid dimer (DCA-OE), which could effectively self-assemble with doxorubicin (DOX) to form stable nanoparticles (DCA-OE/DOX NPs) by a single emulsion method. DCA-based nanoparticles had a ...

In this study, poly (mPEGMA-co-MAA) (PA) based on monomers of mPEGMA and MAA were synthesized, and different amino-β-Cyclodextrins with various alkyl chains were conjugated to PA through carbodiimide-mediated coupling reactions. The obtained poly (mPEGMA-co-MAA-g-amino-β-CD) (PA-g-amino-β-CD) was characterized by FTIR, NMR and TGA. The fluorescence...
