The contamination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in edible oil is a health threat. Thus, trace analysis of PAHs is of high necessity. Based on the efficient adsorption of PAHs on Zn metal cluster, a Zn functionalized copolymer monolithic column was rationally designed for pipette tip micro-solid phase extraction (μ-SPE). The modified Zn improved the adsorption selectivity and capacity of the monolith for naphthalene, phenanthrene, fluoranthene and pyrene. Chemical doping and copolymerization stabilized the monolith with a long life. Under optimal extraction conditions, a μ-SPE-high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detector method was established for the detection of 4 PAHs in edible oils. The method yielded detection ranges of 0.15-250 μg L (R > 0.997), detection limits of 0.050-1.5 μg L, satisfactory recoveries (86.3-101.5 %), and high precisions (RSDs < 7.9 %). The results indicated that the Zn functionalized copolymer monolithic column was an ideal separation medium for the detection of PAHs residues in edible oils.

The endosomal escape of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) is crucial for efficient mRNA-based therapeutics. Here, we present a cationic polymeric micelle (cPM) as a safe and potent co-delivery system with enhanced endosomal escape capabilities. We synthesized a cationic and ampholytic di-block copolymer, poly (poly (ethylene glycol) methacrylate--hexyl methacrylate)--poly(butyl methacrylate--dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate--propyl acrylate) (p(PEGMA--HMA)--p(BMA--DMAEMA--PAA)), via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization.

Developing scaffolds supporting functional cell attachment and tissue growth is critical in basic cell research, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine approaches. Though poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and its derivatives are attractive for hydrogels and scaffold fabrication, they often require bioactive modifications due to their bioinert nature. In this work, biomimetic synthesized conductive polypyrrole-poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) copolymer doped with poly(styrenesulfonate) (PPy-PEDOT:PSS) was used as a biocompatible coating for poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) hydrogel to support neuronal and muscle cells' attachment, activity, and differentiation.

Injectable biomaterials play a vital role in modern medicine, offering tailored functionalities for diverse therapeutic and diagnostic applications. In ophthalmology, for instance, viscoelastic materials are crucial for procedures such as cataract surgery but often leave residues, increasing postoperative risks. This study introduces injectable fluorescent viscoelastics (FluoVs) synthesized via one-step controlled radical copolymerization of oligo(ethylene glycol) acrylate and fluorescein acrylate.

Despite their high clinical relevance, obtaining structural and biophysical data on transmembrane proteins has been hindered by challenges involved in their expression and extraction in a homogeneous, functionally-active form. The inherent enzymatic activity of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) presents additional challenges. Oncogenic fusions of RTKs with heterologous partners represent a particularly difficult-to-express protein subtype due to their high flexibility, aggregation propensity and the lack of a known method for extraction within the native lipid environment.
