Smart soaps: stimulus responsive soap–hydrogel bead composites for controlled dissolution and release of actives (2018)
Journal Article
Thompson, B. R., Rutkevičius, M., Horozov, T. S., Stoyanov, S. D., & Paunov, V. N. (2018). Smart soaps: stimulus responsive soap–hydrogel bead composites for controlled dissolution and release of actives. Materials Chemistry Frontiers, 2(2), 402-409. https://doi.org/10.1039/c7qm00556c

We designed pressure responsive soap–hydrogel bead composites by incorporating agar hydrogel beads of different size distributions within a molten soap matrix at various volume fractions. Upon cooling, the combined suspension of hydrogel beads into t... Read More about Smart soaps: stimulus responsive soap–hydrogel bead composites for controlled dissolution and release of actives.

Synthesis of a novel HER2 targeted aza-BODIPY–antibody conjugate: synthesis, photophysical characterisation and in vitro evaluation (2018)
Journal Article
Cheng, M. H. Y., Cheng, M. H., Maruani, A., Savoie, H., Chudasama, V., & Boyle, R. W. (2018). Synthesis of a novel HER2 targeted aza-BODIPY–antibody conjugate: synthesis, photophysical characterisation and in vitro evaluation. Organic & biomolecular chemistry, 16(7), 1144-1149. https://doi.org/10.1039/c7ob02957h

We herein report the synthesis and analysis of a novel aza-BODIPY–antibody conjugate, formed by controlled and regioselective bioconjugation methodology. Employing the clinically relevant antibody, which targets HER2 positive cancers, represents the...

Host-guest interaction of cucurbit[8]uril with n-(3-aminopropyl)cyclohexylamine: Cyclohexyl encapsulation triggered ternary complex (2018)
Journal Article
Xia, Y., Wang, C., Tian, M., Tao, Z., Ni, X., Prior, T. J., & Redshaw, C. (2018). Host-guest interaction of cucurbit[8]uril with n-(3-aminopropyl)cyclohexylamine: Cyclohexyl encapsulation triggered ternary complex. Molecules, 23(1), 175. https://doi.org/10.3390/molecules23010175

2018 by the authors. The host-guest interaction of a series of cyclohexyl-appended guests with cucurbit[8]uril (Q[8] ) was studied by 1 H NMR spectroscopy, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), and X-ray crystallography. The X-ray structure reveale... Read More about Host-guest interaction of cucurbit[8]uril with n-(3-aminopropyl)cyclohexylamine: Cyclohexyl encapsulation triggered ternary complex.

Pyrene-based color-tunable dipolar molecules: Synthesis, characterization and optical properties (2018)
Journal Article
