A new paper from the group has just been published online in Macromolecular Rapid Communications. The paper describes work by Xiaobo (Bob) Hu, wherein he developed a 1-pot method for the synthesis of semi-hollow hydrogel nanocapsules containing thermoreversible nanoparticles.

Microgels as (poor) crowders
Here is an interesting paper that has arisen out of a collaboration with Gary Pielak’s group at UNC-CH. “An upper limit for macromolecular crowding effects“, just published in BMC Biophysics, basically illustrates that even at very high microgel concentrations, there is little change in the observed stability of solvated proteins. In other words, microgels areContinue reading “Microgels as (poor) crowders”
