Cyclodextrin Assisted Self-Assembly of Stimuli-Sensitive Block Copolymers in Aqueous Media
(University of Waterloo, 2010-09-20)Structures with well-defined architectures and tailored physical properties can be produced by supramolecular self-assembly of stimuli-sensitive polymeric inclusion complexes consisting of cyclodextrins. Recently, there ... -
Synthesis and Self-Assembly of Metal Carbonyl Building Blocks for Aqueous Colloids with Aggregation-Induced Functions
(University of Waterloo, 2017-04-06)Metal carbonyl complexes (MCCs) are potentially useful for a range of biomedical applications, including cell imaging and bioassay. However, the poor solubility and stability of MCCs in water remain obstacles to their use ...
