Fabrication of salt–hydrogel marbles and hollow-shell microcapsules by an aerosol gelation technique (2014)
Journal Article
Rutkevičius, M., Mehl, G. H., Petkov, J. T., Stoyanov, S. D., & Paunov, V. N. (2015). Fabrication of salt–hydrogel marbles and hollow-shell microcapsules by an aerosol gelation technique. Journal of Materials Chemistry B, 3(1), 82-89. https://doi.org/10.1039/c4tb01443j

We designed a new method for preparation of liquid marbles by using hydrophilic particles. Salt–hydrogel marbles were prepared by atomising droplets of hydrogel solution in a cold air column followed by rolling of the collected hydrogel microbeads in...

Artificial multicellular assemblies from cells interfaced with polymers and nanomaterials (2014)
Book Chapter
Das, A. A., Fakhrullin, R. F., & Paunov, V. N. (2014). Artificial multicellular assemblies from cells interfaced with polymers and nanomaterials. In R. Fakhrullin, I. Choi, & Y. Lvov (Eds.), Cell surface engineering: fabrication of functional nanoshells (162-184). Royal Society of Chemistry. https://doi.org/10.1039/9781782628477-00162

In this chapter we review the recent developments in fabrication of multicellular assemblies from cells modified with polymers and nanomaterials. We focus on the specific properties of such “cyborg” cells that allow a variety of new methods to be use...

Adsorption of carboxylic modified latex particles at liquid interfaces studied by the gel trapping technique (2014)
Journal Article
Al-Shehri, H., Horozov, T. S., & Paunov, V. N. (2014). Adsorption of carboxylic modified latex particles at liquid interfaces studied by the gel trapping technique. Soft matter, 10(34), 6433-6441. https://doi.org/10.1039/c4sm01030b

We have studied how carboxylic modified latex (CML) microparticles adsorb at liquid surfaces and the preferred type of emulsion they can stabilise depending on the particle size and the surface density of carboxylic groups. We measured the particle c... Read More about Adsorption of carboxylic modified latex particles at liquid interfaces studied by the gel trapping technique.
