The reagent 9-chloromethylanthracene was evaluated for derivatization of the diarrhetic shellfish poisons, okadaic acid and dinophysistoxin-1 (DTX-1), to form fluorescent products separable by liquid chromatography. The toxins were reacted with the reagent in acetonitrile in the presence of tetramethylammonium hydroxide

Polymeric micelles based on amphiphilic diblock copolymers methoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-polylactide with various hydrophobic lengths were designed as carriers of poorly water-soluble anticancer drug methotrexate (MTX). Relationship between physicochemical characteristics of micelles and release behavior was explored. The critical micelle concentration
