1H-NMR studies on poly(oxyethylene)-bound oligopeptides
1983
Conformational studies on poly(oxyethylene)-bound homo-, oligo-, guest-host, and sequential peptides synthesized according to the liquid-phase method were carried out by means of 1H-nmr spectroscopy. The solubilizing effect of the C-terminal polymeric support allowed a thorough investigation of the secondary structure in solution.
Handheld laser-fiber vibrometry probe for assessing auditory ossicles displacement
2021
Significance: Measurements of auditory ossicles displacement are commonly carried out by means of laser-Doppler vibrometry (LDV), which is considered to be a gold standard. The limitation of the LDV method, especially for in vivo measurements, is the necessity to expose an object in a straight line to a laser beam operating from a distance. An alternative to this approach is the use of a handheld laser-fiber vibrometry probe (HLFVP) with a curved tip. Aim: We evaluate the feasibility of an HLFVP with a curved tip for measuring sound-induced displacement of the auditory ossicles. Approach: A handheld vibrometer probe guiding the laser beam with a fiber-optic cable was used for displacement m…
Self-assembly of Clicked Star-Shaped Triazines into Functional Nanostructures
2019
Two non‐amphiphilic star‐shaped 2,4,6‐tris(1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl)‐1,3,5‐triazines showing different behavior in terms of self‐assembly and luminescent properties are described. They aggregate in the liquid phase to form low‐dimensional nanostructures with a variety of morphologies, such as spherical particles, one‐hole hollow spheres, toroids, twisted fibers or helical nanotubes, just by varying the conditions of a straightforward reprecipitation method. Aggregation has an opposite effect concerning the fluorescent properties of the proposed compounds, either causing the enhancement or the quenching of the emission after the self‐assembly. Quantum chemical calculations have been also performed…

Cell-sized confinements alter molecular diffusion in concentrated polymer solutions due to length-dependent wetting of polymers
2023
Living cells are characterized by the micrometric confinement of various macromolecules at high concentrations. Using droplets containing binary polymer blends as artificial cells, we previously showed that cell-sized confinement causes phase separation of the binary polymer solutions because of the length-dependent wetting of the polymers. Here we demonstrate that the wetting-induced heterogeneity of polymers also emerges in single-component polymer solutions. The resulting heterogeneity leads to a slower transport of small molecules at the center of cell-sized droplets than that in bulk solutions. This heterogeneous distribution is observed when longer polymers with lower wettability are …
