In a study published in Advanced Functional Materials, a research team from the Shanghai Institute of Materia Medica (SIMM) ...

Lecithin is simultaneously hydrophobic and hydrophilic (attracted to water molecules), otherwise known as amphiphilic, and ...

Washing your face with soap and water several times each day is a good way to minimize acne. Soap is an amphiphilic molecule: One end of the molecule binds to water molecules, while the other end ...

Self-assembly of amphiphilic molecules provides a way to make nanoscale (and larger) supramolecular structures including micelles, ribbons, sheets and aggregates that are important in biomedical ...

创新性的提出“双亲性AIE” （amphiphilic AIEgen）设计策略（图1）。特殊的双亲性质使该荧光分子在水性环境和脂性环境中同时具有良好的分散性 ...

Its product, INT230-6, is a formulation consisting of an amphiphilic cell penetration enhancer molecule combined with cisplatin and vinblastine. The company was founded by Lewis H. Bender in 2012 ...

The basic premise is to disperse hydrophobic nanoparticles in oil and encapsulate them within a protective shell that is both deformable and amphiphilic (that is, it displays both hydrophobic and ...

Now, these strategies have been combined by H. Wu et al. in an approach that uses an amphiphilic polymer functionalized with coordinating groups. These 'dual-interaction' ligands, capable of both ...

Drawing inspiration from the natural function of HDL, LLAB endeavors to understand how HDL-mimetic nanodiscs, which consist of amphiphilic peptides and phospholipids, interact and promote the activity ...

Read more. (Image: POSTECH) Vesicles are self-assembled, hollow structures formed by amphiphilic molecules, such as lipids or block copolymers. These nanoscale compartments can encapsulate reactants ...

A key advancement was the surface modification of AuNHs with two types of organic molecules, creating "amphiphilic" nanoparticles that assembled at the interface between two immiscible liquids. By ...
