Researchers from Tokyo Metropolitan University have created a new drug delivering molecule, a zwitterionic polymer complex that can help get plasmid DNA inside cells when injected into skeletal muscle ...

Polymeric ion compounds can bind together with plasmid DNA to form a drug delivery vehicle for intramuscular injection. The team found that their new compound shows effective delivery of pDNA over ...

Three zwitterions with identical quaternary ammonium cations but distinct anionic groups, i.e. carboxylate, sulfonate and phosphate, show distinct impact in aqueous zinc ion batteries. The zwitterion ...

A novel zwitterionic polymer complex that serves as a drug delivery molecule has been developed. This complex facilitates the transport of plasmid DNA into cells when injected into skeletal muscle, a ...

Hydrogels are a useful class of materials, polymers that strongly attract water but don’t dissolve. They’re used to make contact lenses and the urine-absorbing filling in disposable diapers, and they ...
