Journal Article
Cheng, F., Marshall, E. S., Young, A. J., Robinson, P. J., Bouillard, J. S. G., Adawi, A. M., Vermeulen, N. A., Farha, O. K., Reithofer, M. R., & Chin, J. M. (2017). Magnetic control of MOF crystal orientation and alignment. Chemistry: a European journal, 23(62), 15578-15582. https://doi.org/10.1002/chem.201703812

Most metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) possess anisotropic properties, the full exploitation of which necessitates a general strategy for the controllable orientation of such MOF crystals. Current methods largely rely upon layer-by-layer MOF epitaxy or... Read More about Magnetic control of MOF crystal orientation and alignment.

Synthesis and bioactivity of a conjugate composed of green tea catechins and hyaluronic acid (2015)
Journal Article
Lee, F., Lim, J., Reithofer, M. R., Lee, S. S., Chung, J. E., Hauser, C. A. E., & Kurisawa, M. (2015). Synthesis and bioactivity of a conjugate composed of green tea catechins and hyaluronic acid. Polymer chemistry, 6(24), 4462-4472. https://doi.org/10.1039/c5py00495k

(-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is a green tea polyphenol that has several biological activities, including anti-cancer activity and anti-inflammation. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally-occurring polysaccharide that is widely used as a biomat...

In situ synthesis of size-controlled, stable silver nanoparticles within ultrashort peptide hydrogels and their anti-bacterial properties (2014)
Journal Article
Reithofer, M. R., Lakshmanan, A., Ping, A. T., Chin, J. M., & Hauser, C. A. (2014). In situ synthesis of size-controlled, stable silver nanoparticles within ultrashort peptide hydrogels and their anti-bacterial properties. Biomaterials, 35(26), 7535-7542. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.biomaterials.2014.04.102

We have developed a silver-releasing biomaterial with promising potential for wound healing applications. The material is made of ultrashort peptides which can self-assemble in water to form hydrogels. Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were synthesized i...

Ligation of anti-cancer drugs to self-assembling ultrashort peptides by click chemistry for localized therapy (2013)
Journal Article
Reithofer, M. R., Chan, K.-H., Lakshmanan, A., Lam, D. H., Mishra, A., Gopalan, B., Joshi, M., Wang, S., & Hauser, C. A. E. (2014). Ligation of anti-cancer drugs to self-assembling ultrashort peptides by click chemistry for localized therapy. Chemical science, 5(2), 625-630. https://doi.org/10.1039/c3sc51930a

Self-assembling ultrashort peptides from aliphatic amino acids were functionalized with platinum anti-cancer drugs by click chemistry. Oxaliplatin-derived hybrid peptide hydrogels with up to 40% drug loading were tested for localized breast cancer th...
