Morphology and Physical Properties of Hydrophilic-Polymer-Modified Lipids in Supported Lipid Bilayers, Langmuir, 34(24), 7201-7209. 10.1021/acs.langmuir.8b00870 Journal Langmuir ...

Insight into the Mechanisms Driving the Self-Assembly of Functional Interfaces: Moving from Lipids to Charged Amphiphilic Oligomers. Journal of the American Chemical Society , 2019; 142 (1): 290 ...

Polymer nanoparticles may be the answer. With virtually unlimited options for chemical features, “you can design bespoke delivery vehicles easier than with a lipid-based system,” says Sean ...

Soluble polymer fibres: The slime of velvet worms contains nanoglobules made up of lipids and proteins. Shear forces cause the proteins to form fibres covered by a fatty layer. The fibres can ...

The wet-dry cycle also creates lipid droplets that encapsulate the polymers. Now we’re trying to recreate that process in the lab under the sort of conditions you’d find in a hydrothermal field.

A study in the Journal of the American Chemical Society reports steps toward making inhalable mRNA medicines a possibility. Researchers outline their improved lipid-polymer nanoparticle for ...
