Controlled drug release from the aggregation–disaggregation behavior of pH-responsive microgels
Download2014-01-01
Gao, Y., Ahiabu, A., Serpe, M. J.
In this submission, two independent sets of microgels were synthesized that exhibit pH responsivity over different solution pH ranges. The microgels were synthesized by copolymerizing two different comonomers with poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAm). The microgels copolymerized with acrylic acid...

Isolation of RNA from a mixture and its detection by utilizing a microgel-based optical device
Download2018-01-01
Islam, Molla R., Azimi, Shakiba, Teimoory, Faranak, Loppnow, Glen R., Serpe, Michael J.
In this investigation, we show that RNA can be separated from a solution containing DNA and RNA and the isolated RNA can be detected using poly (N-isopropylacrylamide-co-N-(3-aminopropyl) methacrylamide hydrochloride) microgel-based optical devices (etalons). The isolation of RNA was accomplished...
