The degradation of 4,5-dichloro-1,2,3-dithiazolium chloride in wet solvents
(2009)4,5-Dichloro-1,2,3-dithiazolium chloride 1 (Appel salt) reacts in wet DCM, THF or MeCN to give elemental sulfur, dithiazole-5-thione 4, dithiazol-5-one 5 and thiazol-5-one 6. Furthermore the reaction of 2-phenylthiazol-5(4H)-one ...

A dimethacrylate cross-linker cleavable under thermolysis or alkaline hydrolysis conditions: Synthesis, polymerization, and degradation
(2016)We develop a new platform based on 2,6-pyridinediethanol diesters for introducing polymer degradability under thermolysis or alkaline hydrolysis conditions, with the latter being rare in polymers. Such labile diesters can ...

Mathematical modeling of herpes simplex virus distribution in solid tumors: Implications for cancer gene therapy
(2009)Purpose: Although oncolytic viral vectors show promise for the treatment of various cancers, ineffective initial distribution and propagation throughout the tumor mass often limit the therapeutic response. A mathematical ...

Networks Based on “Core-First” Star Polymers End-Linked Using a Degradable Ketal Cross-Linker: Synthesis, Characterization, and Cleavage
(2018)Sequential group transfer polymerization of cross-linker, monomer (methyl methacrylate), and cross-linker again is used to prepare cleavable polymer networks based on interconnected “core-first” star polymers. By employing ...

Sample preparation: A critical step in the analysis of cholesterol oxidation products
(2014)In recent years, cholesterol oxidation products (COPs) have drawn scientific interest, particularly due to their implications on human health. A big number of these compounds have been demonstrated to be cytotoxic, mutagenic, ...

A structural, kinetic model of soft tissue thermomechanics
(2008)A structure-based kinetic model was developed to predict the thermomechanical response of collagenous soft tissues. The collagen fibril was represented as an ensemble of molecular arrays with cross-links connecting the ...

Symmetrical polymer systems prepared using a degradable bifunctional atom transfer radical polymerization initiator: Synthesis, characterization, and cleavage
(2017)Linear (co)polymers and dimethacrylate-end-linked polymer networks of methyl methacrylate with 2-(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate, cleavable in the middle of the polymer chain, either under thermolysis or alkaline hydrolysis ...
