Application

PolyNIPAM is a stimuli-responsive polymer. The low PDI means that the distribution of chain lengths is narrow which will typically lead to better reproducibility. This polymer for development of thermosensitive coated micro/nano materials including thermoresponsive polymeric drug delivery systems. The carboxylic acid functional group can be used to conjugate a variety of biomolecules to the polymer chain.

Copolymers of 2-(dimethylamino) ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) and N-isopropylacryl amide (NIPAAm) of various monomer ratios and molecular weights were evaluated as carrier systems for DNA delivery. All copolymers, even with a low DMAEMA content of 15 mol%, were able to bind

We describe here the synthesis of 10 nm, monodisperse, iron oxide nanoparticles that we have coated with temperature-sensitive, biotinylated p(NIPAAm) (b-PNIPAAm). The PNIPAAm was prepared by the reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer polymerization (RAFT), and one end was biotinylated with

To achieve a combination of spatial specificity in a passive manner with a stimuli-responsive targeting mechanism, a temperature-responsive polymeric micelle is prepared using block copolymers of (poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-b-butylmethacrylate) (PIPAAm-PBMA)). The micelle inner core formed by self-aggregates of PBMA segments successfully loaded
