Electrochemically Prepared Polypyrrole-2-Carboxylic Acid Films: Synthesis Protocols and Studies on Biosensors

Electrochemically Produced Copolymers of Pyrrole and Its Derivatives: A Plentitude of Material Properties Using "Simple" Heterocyclic Co-Monomers

Polypyrrole is a classical, well-known conjugated polymer that is produced from a simple heterocyclic system. Numerous pyrrole derivatives exhibit biological activity, and the repeat unit is a common building block present in the chemical structure of many polymeric materials, finding wide application, primarily in optoelectronics and sensing. In this work, we focus on the variety of copolymers and their material properties that can be produced electrochemically, even though all these systems are obtained from mixtures of the "simple" pyrrole monomer and its derivatives with different conjugated and non-conjugated species.

Evaluation of poly(pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid) particles synthesized by enzymatic catalysis

In this study an environmentally friendly synthesis of poly(pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid) (PCPy) particles dispersed in water–ethanol medium using enzymatic catalysis is proposed.

Conducting polyaniline based cell culture substrate for embryonic stem cells and embryoid bodies

Noncytotoxic polyaniline–poly(2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonate) films which are electrically conducting at the physiological pH were applied as cell culture substrate. The films demonstrate selective interaction with specific target cells.
