Abstract
An electrochemical sensor based on environmentally friendly eRAFT polymerization was developed for the detection of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in food and herbal medicine. Two biological probes, aptamer (Ap) and antibody (Ab), were used to specifically recognize AFB1, and a large number of ferrocene polymers were grafted on the electrode surface by eRAFT polymerization, which greatly improved the specificity and sensitivity of the sensor. The detection limit of AFB1 was 37.34 fg/mL. In addition, the recovery rate was 95.69% to 107.65% and the RSD was 0.84% to 4.92% by detecting 9 spiked samples. The delighted reliability of this method was verified by HPLC-FL.

Abstract
We describe electrochemically initiated emulsion polymerization with reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (eRAFT) to form well-defined multiblock copolymers with low molar mass dispersity. We demonstrate the utility of our emulsion eRAFT process with the synthesis of low dispersity multiblock copolymers by seeded RAFT emulsion polymerization at ambient temperature (∼30 °C). Thus, a triblock, poly(butyl methacrylate)-block-polystyrene-block-poly(4-methylstyrene) [PBMA-b-PSt-b-PMS], and a tetrablock, poly(butyl methacrylate)-block-polystyrene-block-poly(styrene-stat-butyl acrylate)-block-polystyrene [PBMA-b-PSt-b-P(BA-stat-St)-b-PSt], were synthesized as free-flowing, colloidally stable latexes commencing with a surfactant-free poly(butyl methacrylate) macroRAFT agent seed latex. A straightforward sequential addition strategy with no intermediate purification steps was able to be employed due to the high monomer conversions achieved in each step. The method takes full advantage of compartmentalization phenomena and the nanoreactor concept described in previous work to achieve the predicted molar mass, low molar mass dispersity (Đ ∼ 1.1-1.2), incrementing particle size (Zav = 100-115 nm), and low particle size dispersity (PDI ∼ 0.02) for each generation of the multiblocks.

Abstract
Modern polymeric material design often involves precise tailoring of molecular/supramolecular structures which is also called macromolecular engineering. The available tools for molecular structure tailoring are controlled/living polymerization methods, click chemistry, supramolecular polymerization, self-assembly, among others. When polymeric materials with complex molecular architectures are targeted, it usually takes several steps of reactions to obtain the aimed product. Concurrent polymerization methods, i.e., two or more reaction mechanisms, steps, or procedures take place simultaneously instead of sequentially, can significantly reduce the complexity of the reaction procedure or provide special molecular architectures that would be otherwise very difficult to synthesize. Atom transfer radical polymerization, ATRP, has been widely applied in concurrent polymerization reactions and resulted in improved efficiency in macromolecular engineering. This perspective summarizes reported studies employing concurrent polymerization methods with ATRP as one of the reaction components and highlights future research directions in this area.

Abstract
A new family of multifunctional biodegradable block copolymers, PEG-poly(ω-pentadecalactone-co-N-methyldiethyleneamine sebacate-co-2,2'-thiodiethylene sebacate) (PEG-PMT), were synthesized via lipase-catalyzed copolymerization procedures. Amphiphilic PEG-PMT copolymers can be readily transformed into stable micellar nanoparticles through self-assembling processes in aqueous medium. The particle sizes increase dramatically after exposure of the particles to the acidic pH and high reactive oxygen species (ROS) conditions in tumor microenvironments, due to protonation of thioether groups and oxidation of amino groups in the PMT micelle cores, respectively. For example, docetaxel (DTX)-loaded PEG-PM-19 % TS micelles were triggered synergistically by acidic pH and ROS stimuli to release over 85 % of the anti-cancer drug. In particular, DTX/PEG-PMT-19 % TS and DTX/PEG-PMT-48 % TS micelles performed better than commercial Duopafei formulation in prohibiting growth of CT-26 tumors xenografed in vivo (70 % of tumor-inhibiting efficiency). Biosafety analysis revealed that DTX-loaded PEG-PMT nanoparticles possessed minimal toxicity towards normal organs, such as liver and kidney. These experimental data demonstrated that the pH- and ROS-responsive PEG-PMT micelles are promising vectors for both delivery of anti-tumor drugs and their controlled release at tumor intracellular sites.

Abstract
Surface modification of poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK) aimed at applying it as a bone implant material aroused the unflagging interest of the research community. In view of the development of implantology and the growing demand for new biomaterials, increasing biocompatibility and improving osseointegration are becoming the primary goals of PEEK surface modifications. The main aim of this review is to summarize the use of polymerization methods and various monomers applied for surface modification of PEEK to increase its bioactivity, which is a critical factor for successful applications of biomedical materials. In addition, the future directions of PEEK surface modifications are suggested, pointing to low-ppm surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (SI-ATRP) as a method with unexplored capacity for flat surface modifications.

Abstract
The past decades have witnessed an increasing interest in developing advanced polymerization techniques subjected to external fields. Various physical modulations, such as temperature, light, electricity, magnetic field, ultrasound, and microwave irradiation, are noninvasive means, having superb but distinct abilities to regulate polymerizations in terms of process intensification and spatial and temporal controls. Gas as an emerging regulator plays a distinctive role in controlling polymerization and resembles a physical regulator in some cases. This review provides a systematic overview of seven types of external-field-regulated polymerizations, ranging from chain-growth to step-growth polymerization. A detailed account of the relevant mechanism and kinetics is provided to better understand the role of each external field in polymerization. In addition, given the crucial role of modeling and simulation in mechanisms and kinetics investigation, an overview of model construction and typical numerical methods used in this field as well as highlights of the interaction between experiment and simulation toward kinetics in the existing systems are given. At the end, limitations and future perspectives for this field are critically discussed. This state-of-the-art research progress not only provides the fundamental principles underlying external-field-regulated polymerizations but also stimulates new development of advanced polymerization methods.

Abstract
Electrochemical activation of thiocarbonylthio reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) agents (S=C(Z)S-R) is explored as a potential method for initiating RAFT polymerization under mild conditions without producing initiator-derived byproducts. Herein we apply cyclic voltammetry to establish a predominant reduction mechanism, where electrochemical reduction is coupled to an irreversible first-order chemical reaction. Structure-dependent trends in cyclic voltammograms (CVs), and comparison to absorption spectra, clarify the role of R- and Z-groups in determining reduction processes. The major reduction peak moves to more cathodic potentials in the series dithiobenzoates > trithiocarbonates > heteroaromatic dithiocarbamates > xanthates ∼ N-alkyl-N-aryldithiocarbamates, due to the Z-group influence on thiocarbonyl bond reactivity. More active (electron-withdrawing, radical stabilizing) R-groups shift the reduction peak anodically, in part due to their influence on the rate of the coupled chemical reaction. Analysis of CVs across a range of scan rates revealed that kinetic control over the reduction mechanism is influenced by both the charge transfer rate and chemical reaction rate.

Abstract
An aqueous electrochemically mediated atom transfer radical polymerization (eATRP) was performed in a small volume solution (75 μL) deposited on a screen-printed electrode (SPE). The reaction was open to air, thanks to the use of glucose oxidase (GOx) as an oxygen scavenger. Well-defined poly(2-(methylsulfinyl)ethyl acrylate) (PMSEA), poly(oligo(ethylene oxide) methyl ether methacrylate) (POEOMA), and corresponding DNA-polymer biohybrids were synthesized by the small-volume eATRP at room temperature. The reactions were simplified and polymerization rates increased by the application of the enzyme deoxygenating system and the compact electrochemical setup. Importantly, the volume of polymerization mixture was lowered to microliters, which not only decreases the cost for each reaction, but can also be potentially implemented in combinatorial chemistry and electrode-array configurations for high-throughput systems.

Abstract
Block copolymers with unique architectures and those that can self-assemble into supramolecular structures are used in medicine as biomaterial scaffolds and delivery vehicles for cells, therapeutics, and imaging agents. To date, much of the work relies on controlling polymer behavior by varying the monomer side chains to add functionality and tune hydrophobicity. Although varying the side chains is an efficient strategy to control polymer behavior, changing the polymer backbone can also be a powerful approach to modulate polymer self-assembly, rigidity, reactivity, and biodegradability for biomedical applications. There are many developments in the syntheses of polymers with segmented backbones, but these developments are not widely adopted as strategies to address the unique constraints and requirements of polymers for biomedical applications. This review highlights dual polymerization strategies for the synthesis of backbone-segmented block copolymers to facilitate their adoption for biomedical applications.

Abstract
Photoinduced organocatalyzed atom-transfer radical polymerization (O-ATRP) is a controlled radical polymerization methodology that can be mediated by organic photoredox catalysts under the influence of light. However, typical O-ATRP systems require relatively high catalyst loadings (1000 ppm) to achieve control over the polymerization. Here, new core-extended diaryl dihydrophenazine photoredox catalysts were developed for O-ATRP and demonstrated to efficiently operate at low catalyst loadings of 5-50 ppm to produce polymers with excellent molecular weight control and low dispersity, while achieving near-quantitative initiator efficiency. Photophysical and electrochemical properties of the catalysts were computationally predicted and experimentally measured to correlate these properties with improved catalytic performance. Furthermore, these catalysts were utilized to synthesize materials with complex architectures, such as triblock copolymers and star polymers. To demonstrate their broad utility, polymerizations employing these catalysts were successfully scaled up to 5 g and revealed to efficiently operate under air.
