Amorphous nanoscopic iron(III) oxide with interesting magnetic properties was prepared by sonolysis of Fe(acac)(3) under Ar in tetraglyme with a small amount of added water. The organics content and the surface area of the Fe(2)O(3) nanoparticles can be controlled with

Journal of biomaterials science. Polymer edition, 12(9), 961-978 (2002-01-15)
Monocytes and macrophages play important roles in host responses to implanted biomedical devices. Monocyte and macrophage interactions with biomaterial surfaces are thought to be mediated by adsorbed adhesive proteins such as fibrinogen and fibronectin. Non-fouling surfaces that minimize protein adsorption

Journal of biomaterials science. Polymer edition, 13(4), 367-390 (2002-08-06)
Polyethylene oxide (PEO) surfaces reduce non-specific protein and cell interactions with implanted biomaterials and may improve their biocompatibility. PEO-like polymerized tetraglyme surfaces were made by glow discharge plasma deposition onto fluorinated ethylene propylene copolymer (FEP) substrates and were shown to

Optical heterodyne-detected optical Kerr effect (OHD-OKE) experiments and pulsed field-gradient spin-echo NMR (PFGSE-NMR) experiments were performed to measure the rotational and translational diffusion constants of a polyether, tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether (TEGDE), in binary mixtures with water over concentrations ranging
Luisa Mayorga Szott et al.
Journal of biomedical materials research. Part A, 96(1), 150-161 (2010-11-26)
Nonspecific protein adsorption, particularly fibrinogen (Fg), is thought to be an initiating step in the foreign body response (FBR) to biomaterials by promoting phagocyte attachment. In previous studies, we therefore prepared radiofrequency glow discharge (ethylene oxide)-like tetraglyme (CH(3)O(CH(2)CH(2)O)(4)CH(3)) coatings adsorbing
