Nanostructures, Linear Rheological Responses, and Tunable Mechanical Properties of Microphase-Separated Cellulose--Diblock Bottlebrush Copolymer Elastomers.

Biomacromolecules

August 2023

Key Laboratory of Precision and Intelligent Chemistry, Department of Polymer Science and Engineering, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei, Anhui 230026, P. R. China.

A series of cellulose--diblock bottlebrush copolymer elastomers (cellulose--poly(-butyl acrylate)--poly(methyl methacrylate) (Cell--PBA--PMMA)) with short side chains were synthesized via successive atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) to study the influence of varying compositions and lengths of the graft diblock side chains on microphase morphologies and properties. The microphase-separated morphologies from misaligned spheres to cylinders were observed by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements. These bottlebrush copolymer elastomers possessed thermal stability and enhanced mechanical properties because the PMMA outer block could self-assemble into hard microdomains, which served as physical cross-links.

In this research, a new biodegradable and eco-friendly adsorbent, starch-grafted polymethyl methacrylate (St-g-PMMA) was synthesized. The St-g-PMMA was synthesized by a free radical polymerization reaction in which methyl methacrylate (MMA) was grafted onto a starch polymer chain. The reaction was performed in water in the presence of a potassium persulfate (KPS) initiator.

Osteomyelitis and Gentamicin-PMMA Chains.

Clin Nucl Med

November 2022

From the Department of Nuclear Medicine, Centre Hospitalier du Mans, Le Mans, France.

In chronic osteomyelitis, effective local antibiotic therapy after surgical debridement can be achieved by implantation of gentamicin-PMMA chains. The gentamicin concentrations at the site of infection are higher than that after systemic application of the same antibiotic. The appearance of this treatment is a particular aspect from a radiological point of view.

The purpose of our study was to investigate the antibacterial effect of a spacer (Ti6Al4V) coated with 4x Cu-TiO₂ in an animal model simulating an acute periprosthetic infection by . Ti6Al4 bolts contaminated with were implanted into the femoral condyle of rabbits (n = 36) divided into 3 groups. After one week in group 1 (control) the bolts were removed without any replacement.
