The synthesis of a series of α-aryl or α-alkyl functionalised β-hydroxy and β-keto esters has been achieved by reacting α-diazoesters with boranes, and aldehydes, ketones, anhydrides, nitriles, esters or isocyanates. In a mild reaction protocol, 26 examples are presented in yields up to 73%.

A smart viscose fabric with temperature and pH responsiveness and proactive antibacterial and UV protection was developed. PNCS (poly-(N-isopropylakrylamide)/chitosan) hydrogel was used as the carrier of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs), synthesised in an environmentally friendly manner using AgNO and a sumac leaf extract. PNCS hydrogel and Ag NPs were applied to the viscose fabric by either in situ synthesis of Ag NPs on the surface of viscose fibres previously modified with PNCS hydrogel, or by the direct immobilisation of Ag NPs by the dehydration/hydration of the PNCS hydrogel with the nanodispersion of Ag NPs in the sumac leaf extract and subsequent application to the viscose fibres.

Phosphorous-containing materials are used in a wide array of fields, from energy conversion and storage to heterogeneous catalysis and biomaterials. Among these materials, organic-inorganic metal phosphonate solids and thin films present an interesting option, due to their remarkable thermal and chemical stability. Yet, the synthesis of phosphonate hybrids by vapour phase thin film deposition techniques remains largely unexplored.

Urinary catheters are commonly used in medical practice to drain and monitor urine of patients. However, urinary catheterisation is associated with the risk of developing catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs), which can result in life-threatening sepsis that requires antibiotics for treatment. Using the layer-by-layer (LbL) technique, we assembled a multilayer catheter comprising nine quadruple layers (9QL) of alginate, chlorhexidine (CHX), alginate and poly(β-amino ester) (PBAE) built upon an amino-functionalised silicone.

: Poxviruses are large DNA viruses that replicate in the host cytoplasm without a nuclear phase. As vaccine vectors, they can package and express large recombinant cassettes from different positions of their genomic core region. We present a comparison between wildtype modified vaccinia Ankara (MVA) and isolate CR19, which has significantly expanded inverted terminal repeats (ITRs).

Microgels, combining the properties of hydrogels and microparticles, are emerging as versatile materials for varied applications such as drug delivery and sensing, although the precise control of particle size remains a challenge. Advances in synthetic methodologies have provided new tools for tailoring of properties, however costs and scalability of the processes remains a limitation. We report here the water-based synthesis of a library of -isopropylacrylamide-based microgels covalently crosslinked with varying contents of ,-methylenebisacrylamide.
