Hydrogel-based thermosensor using peptide nucleic acid and PEGylated graphene oxide. Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1239:340708.

Abstract
Developing a ready-to-use miniaturized thermosensor is a great challenge due to its individual use on a large scale for daily business such as food industry and healthcare. Herein, a polyethylene glycol (PEG)-modified graphene oxide (GO)-based hydrogel thermosensor was established with a fluorescent dye-labeled peptide nucleic acid (F-PNA). The size-tunable hydrogel with high water content and sufficient solidity allowed free movement of the oligonucleotides through the pores and improved usability for handling the sensor. In the PEG-GO hydrogel, the DNA/F-PNA duplex could be denatured by increasing the temperature, followed by selective PNA capture on the PEG-GO. Using this principle, the PEG-GO hydrogel exhibited a change in the fluorescence signal of F-PNA in a temperature-dependent manner, allowing real-time visualization of temperature on a large scale. The temperature detection range of this system can be adjusted by designing the PNA strands based on the melting temperature of the DNAzyme/PNA duplex. Its sensing specificity and detection range could be increased and broadened by observing multi-color detection using PNA probes labeled with different fluorescent dyes of different lengths in a single hydrogel. In addition, the hydrogel platform is easy to store for long time periods via dehydration and can be restored with the addition of water, allowing easy transport, storage, and use of the thermosensor in everyday life.

Abstract
Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) is the most well-known and widely used stimuli-responsive polymer in the biomedical field owing to its ability to undergo temperature-dependent hydration and dehydration with temperature variations, causing hydrophilic and hydrophobic alterations. This temperature-dependent property of PNIPAAm provides functionality to interfaces containing PNIPAAm. Notably, the hydrophilic and hydrophobic alterations caused by the change in the temperature-responsive property of PNIPAAm-modified interfaces induce temperature-modulated interactions with biomolecules, proteins, and cells. This intrinsic property of PNIPAAm can be effectively used in various biomedical applications, particularly in bioseparation and tissue engineering applications, owing to the functionality of PNIPAAm-modified interfaces based on the temperature modulation of the interaction between PNIPAAm-modified interfaces and biomolecules and cells. This review focuses on PNIPAAm-modified interfaces in terms of preparation method, properties, and their applications. Advances in PNIPAAm-modified interfaces for existing and developing applications are also summarized.

Abstract
In recent years, drug discovery and therapeutics trends have shifted from a focus on small-molecule compounds to biopharmaceuticals, genes, cell therapy, and regenerative medicine. Therefore, new approaches and technologies must be developed to respond to these changes in medical care. To achieve this, we applied a temperature-responsive separation system to purify a variety of proteins and cells. We developed a temperature-responsive chromatography technique based on a poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm)-grafted stationary phase. This method may be applied to various types of protein and cell separation applications by optimizing the properties of the modified polymers used in this system. Therefore, the developed temperature-responsive HPLC columns and temperature-responsive solid-phase extraction (TR-SPE) columns can be an effective separation tool for new therapeutic modalities such as monoclonal antibodies, nucleic acid drugs, and cells.

Abstract
Temperature responsive liquid chromatography (TRLC) allows for separation of organic solutes in purely aqueous mobile phases whereby retention is controlled through temperature. The vast majority of the work has thus far been performed on poly[N-isopropylacrylamide] (PNIPAAm)-based columns, while the performance of other temperature responsive polymers has rarely been compared under identical conditions. Therefore, in this work, two novel TRLC phases based on poly[N-n-propylacrylamide] (PNNPAAm) and poly[N,N-diethylacrylamide] (PDEAAm) are reported and compared to the state of the art PNIPAAm based column. Optimal comparison is thereby obtained by the use of controlled radical polymerizations, identical molecular weights, and by maximizing carbon loads on the silica supporting material. Analysis of identical test mixtures of homologue series and pharmaceutical samples revealed that PNNPAAm performs in a similar way as PNIPAAm while offering enhanced retention and a shift of the useable temperature range toward lower temperatures. PDEAAm offers a range of novel possibilities as it depicts a different selectivity, allowing for enhanced resolution in TRLC in, for example, coupled column systems. Reduced plate heights of 3 could be obtained on the homemade columns, offering the promise for reasonable column efficiencies in TRLC despite the use of bulky polymers as stationary phases in HPLC.

Abstract
There is strong demand for cell separation methods that do not decrease cell activity or modify cell surfaces. Here, new temperature-modulated cell-separation columns not requiring cell-surface premodification are described. The columns were packed with temperature-responsive cationic polymer hydrogel-modified silica beads. Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-n-butyl methacrylate-co-N,N-dimethylaminopropyl acrylamide) hydrogels with various cationic moieties were attached to silica-bead surfaces by radical polymerization using N,N'-methylenebisacrylamide as a crosslinking agent. The beads were packed into solid-phase extraction columns, and temperature-dependent cell elution from the columns was found using HL-60 and Jurkat cells. The retention HL-60 and Jurkat cells in columns containing cationic beads at 37 °C was 95.3% to 99.6% and 95.0% to 98.8%, respectively. By contrast, beads without cationic properties exhibited low cell retention (20.6% for HL-60 and 32.5% for Jurkat cells). The cells were mainly retained through both electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions. The retained HL-60 (4.9%) and Jurkat cells (40%) were eluted at 4 °C from the column with a low composition of cationic monomer (DMAPAAm, 1 mol% in copolymer), because the temperature-responsive hydrogels on the beads became hydrophilic, decreasing the hydrophobic interactions between the cells and the beads. A higher number of Jurkat cells than HL-60 cells were eluted because of differences in their electrostatic properties (Jurkat cells: -2.53 mV; HL-60 cells: -20.7 mV). The results indicated that cell retention by the hydrogel-coated beads packed in a solid phase extraction column could be modulated simply by changing the temperature.

Abstract
Comprehensive two-dimensional liquid chromatography (LC × LC) allows for substantial gains in theoretical peak capacity in the field of liquid chromatography. However, in practice, theoretical performance is rarely achieved due to a combination of undersampling, orthogonality, and refocusing issues prevalent in many LC × LC applications. This is intricately linked to the column dimensions, flow rates, and mobile-phase compositions used, where, in many cases, incompatible or strong solvents are introduced in the second-dimension (2D) column, leading to peak broadening and the need for more complex interfacing approaches. In this contribution, the combination of temperature-responsive (TR) and reversed-phase (RP) LC is demonstrated, which, due to the purely aqueous mobile phase used in TRLC, allows for complete and more generic refocusing of organic solutes prior to the second-dimension RP separation using a conventional 10-port valve interface. Thus far, this was only possible when combining other purely aqueous modes such as ion exchange or gel filtration chromatography with RPLC, techniques which are limited to the analysis of charged or high MW solutes, respectively. This novel TRLC × RPLC combination relaxes undersampling constraints and complete refocusing and therefore offers novel possibilities in the field of LC × LC including temperature modulation. The concept is illustrated through the TRLC × RPLC analysis of mixtures of neutral organic solutes.

Abstract
Polymers that respond to small changes in environmental stimuli with large, sometimes discontinuous changes in their physical state or properties, are often called "smart" polymers. Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide), PNIPAAm, is one of the most representative smart polymer that exhibits a thermally reversible soluble-insoluble change in the vicinity of its lower critical solution temperature (LCST) at 32°C in aqueous solution. Temperature-responsive chromatography for the separation of biomolecules utilizing the poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm)-modified stationary phase is performed with an aqueous mobile phase without using an organic solvent. The surface properties and function of the stationary phase are controlled by external temperature changes without changing the mobile-phase composition. The separation of the biomolecules, such as nucleotides, was achieved by a dual temperature- and pH-responsive chromatography system. The electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions could be modulated simultaneously with the temperature in an aqueous mobile phase. Additionally, we also prepared functional copolymers composed of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) and amino acid derivative or naphthyl alanine derivative, which have temperature-responsiveness and molecular recognition. These separation systems would have potential applications in the separation of biomolecules.

Abstract
Temperature-responsive chromatography for the separation of biomolecules utilizing poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) and its copolymer-modified stationary phase is performed with an aqueous mobile phase without using organic solvent. The surface properties and function of the stationary phase are controlled by external temperature changes without changing the mobile-phase composition. This analytical system is based on nonspecific adsorption by the reversible transition of a hydrophilic-hydrophobic PNIPAAm-grafted surface. The driving force for retention is hydrophobic interaction between the solute molecules and the hydrophobized polymer chains on the stationary phase surface. The separation of the biomolecules, such as nucleotides and proteins was achieved by a dual temperature- and pH-responsive chromatography system. The electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions could be modulated simultaneously with the temperature in an aqueous mobile phase, thus the separation system would have potential applications in the separation of biomolecules. Additionally, chromatographic matrices prepared by a surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) exhibit a strong interaction with analytes, because the polymerization procedure forms a densely packed polymer, called a polymer brush, on the surfaces. The copolymer brush grafted surfaces prepared by ATRP was an effective tool for separating basic biomolecules by modulating the electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions. Applications of thermally responsive columns for the separations of biomolecules are reviewed here.

Abstract
The phosphorylation of a peptide is considered to be one of the most important post-translational modification reactions that can alter protein function in mammalian cells. To separate and purify, we developed a dual temperature- and pH-responsive chromatography based on terpolymer composed of N-isopropylacrylamide, N,N'-dimethylaminopropylacrylamide and butylmethacrylate. The property of the surface of the terpolymer-grafted stationary phase altered from hydrophilic to hydrophobic, and from changed to non-charged by changes in the temperature and the pH, respectively. In addition, it was possible to appear and hide ion-exchange groups on the polymer chain surface by temperature changes. These phenomena resulted from changes in the charge and the hydrophobicity of the pH- and temperature-responsive polymer on the stationary surface by controlling the temperature. In the developed environmental-responsive chromatographic system, the ionizable dimethylamino group of N,N'-dimethylaminopropylacrylamide in terpolymer played a key role for the separation. We applied the developed chromatographic system to the separation of phosphorylated compounds, such as phospho-tyrosine, phosphopeptide and oligonucleotides. At a low column temperature, the electrostatic interaction plays a predominant role for retain anionic phosphorylated compounds, because of the strong interaction between the cationic dimethylamino group in the stationary phase and the anionic phosphoric group in the analyte. On the contrary, the hydrophobic interaction became predominant upon increasing the temperature. The results showed that both the electrostatic and the hydrophobic interactions became controllable with a temperature change during the chromatographic process. Dual pH- and temperature-responsive chromatography would be very useful for biomacromolecules separation and purification.

Abstract
This article reviews the properties and characterization of an intelligent thermoresponsive surface, which is a key technology for cell sheet-based tissue engineering. Intelligent thermoresponsive surfaces grafted with poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) exhibit hydrophilic/hydrophobic alteration in response to temperature change. Cultured cells are harvested on thermoresponsive cell culture dishes by decreasing the temperature without the use of digestive enzymes or chelating agents. Our group has developed cell sheet-based tissue engineering for therapeutic uses with single layer or multilayered cell sheets, which were recovered from the thermoresponsive cell culture dish. Using surface derivation techniques, we developed a new generation of thermoresponsive cell culture dishes to improve culture conditions. We also designed a new methodology for constructing well-defined organs using microfabrication techniques.

Abstract
Recently a novel technique has been developed in chromatography, namely thermo-responsive chromatography. This employs the use of thermo-responsive polymers grafted onto pre-formed stationary phases for the separation of hydrophobic analytes. The resultant thermo-responsive silica exhibits temperature-controlled hydrophilic-hydrophobic properties. In this study, the themo-responsive polymers were grafted in situ into the pre-packed aminated silica columns. It was found that the molecular weight of the grafted thermo-responsive polymers should be optimized in order to obtain an efficient thermo-responsive column. Furthermore, within this study it was observed that the type of stationary phase (monolithic or packed beads) and the presence of mesoporosity in the system are important parameters influencing the final performance of the thermo-responsive column.

Aqueous chromatographic system for the quantification of propofol in biological fluids using a temperature-responsive polymer modified stationary phase. J Chromatogr A 2009; 1216:7427-32.

Abstract
A new method for the quantitative analysis of monkey serum propofol, which is widely used as an anaesthetic agent, was developed by utilizing a temperature-responsive polymer of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) and butyl methacrylate (BMA) as the stationary phase of HPLC-fluorescence detection. This poly(NIPAAm-co-BMA) copolymer undergoes a reversible phase transition from a hydrophilic to a hydrophobic microstructure when triggered by change in the temperature. Also this chromatographic system is possible to separate the analytes by using only water as a mobile phase. A pretreatment of the serum (80 microL) was only solid-phase extraction, and the recovery rate of propofol and internal standard was more than 77%, respectively. This method covered the calibration range from 0.5 microg/mL to 10 microg/mL and allowed a reproducible quantification of the serum propofol in administrated monkey serum. The intra- and inter-assay relative standard deviations were less than 14.1%. In addition, there was good relationship of the quantification values between the developed method and the widely used reversed-phase HPLC method. Our developed method has proven to be useful for a simple analysis of propofol in clinical practice, because the avoidance of complicated mobile phase preparation was possible, and only temperature changing could regulate the retention time of the analyte. In addition, by using water instead of fossil fuel, it is the ideal analytical method according to green chemistry.

Abstract
Temperature-responsive intelligent surfaces, prepared by the modification of an interface with poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) and its derivatives, have been used for biomedical applications. Such surfaces exhibit temperature-responsive hydrophilic/hydrophobic alterations with external temperature changes, which, in turn, result in thermally modulated interactions with biomolecules and cells. In this review, we focus on the application of these intelligent surfaces to chromatographic separation and cell cultures. Chromatographic separations using several types of intelligent surfaces are mentioned briefly, and various effects related to the separation of bioactive compounds are discussed, including wettability, copolymer composition and graft polymer architecture. Similarly, we also summarize temperature-responsive cell culture substrates that allow the recovery of confluent cell monolayers as contiguous living cell sheets for tissue-engineering applications. The key factors in temperature-dependent cell adhesion/detachment control are discussed from the viewpoint of grafting temperature-responsive polymers, and new methodologies for effective cell sheet culturing and the construction of thick tissues are summarized.

Abstract
We have prepared poly( N-isopropylacrylamide (IPAAm)- co-2-(dimethylamino)ethylmethacrylate (DMAEMA)) brush-grafted silica bead surfaces through surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) using the CuCl/CuCl 2/Me 6TREN catalytic system in 2-propanol at 25 degrees C for 16 h. The prepared temperature-responsive surfaces were characterized by chromatographic analysis using the modified silica beads as stationary phases. Chromatographic retention times for adenosine nucleotides in aqueous mobile phases were significantly increased compared to that previously reported for other cationic hydrogel surfaces, indicating that strong electrostatic cationic copolymer brush interactions occur between the surfaces and nucleotide analytes. Retention times for adenosine nucleotides significantly decreased with increasing column temperature, explained by the decreasing basicity in the copolymer with increasing temperature. Step-temperature gradients from 10 to 50 degrees C shorten ATP retention times. These results indicate that cationic copolymer brush surfaces prepared by ATRP can rapidly alter their electrostatic properties by changing aqueous temperature.

Abstract
Switchable surfaces are highly useful materials with surface properties that change in response to external stimuli. These surfaces can be employed in both research and industrial applications, where the ability to actively control surface properties can be used to develop smart materials and intelligent surfaces. Herein, we review a range of surfaces in which hydrophobicity can be controlled. We present the principal ideas of surface switching, discuss recent developments, explore experimental issues and examine factors that influence surface switching, including the nature of the stimuli, the underlying material, the morphology of the surface and the surrounding environment. We have categorised switchable surfaces according to the stimuli that trigger changes in surface hydrophobicity. These are electrically, electrochemically, thermally, mechanically, photo- and environmentally inducible surfaces. In addition, we review the use of chemical reactions to modify the properties of switchable surfaces and produce changes in the molecular structure and nanoscale features of the surface.

Abstract
Functional polymers that respond to small changes in environmental stimuli with large changes in their structure and properties are often called "intelligent" polymers. We have modified material surfaces with such polymers and used them in separation systems. Silica beads were modified with the temperature-responsive polymer poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm). PNIPAAm-grafted surfaces exhibited temperature-driven alterations of hydrophilic-hydrophobic surface-properties. Using this feature, PNIPAAm and related temperature-responsive polymers have been used to generate temperature-sensitive stationary phases for chromatographic separations. We attached several different functional polymers, including temperature- and pH-responsive polymers, to silica beads. These temperature-responsive stationary phases are useful in development of separation methods since adjusting the temperature represents an extra tool for optimizing the selectivity. Applications of thermally responsive columns for separations in the HPLC mode are demonstrated.

Abstract
A new method for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of an intracerebral hormone, such as melatonin, has been proposed, utilizing newly designed copolymers that include ion-exchange groups. These copolymers responded to both the temperature and the pH, and the copolymers were modified with cross-linked hydrogel applied onto aminopropyl silica beads. The products were evaluated as HPLC packing materials for a pH- and temperature-responsive chromatography. The property of the surface of the stationary phase was altered from hydrophilic to hydrophobic, and from charged to non-charged by changes in both the temperature and the pH. In the chromatographic system, we investigated how to change the retention of melatonin by varying the temperature. A pH- and temperature-responsive chromatography is expected to be useful for the separation of pharmaceuticals and biomolecules.
