Abstract
The current study focuses on the fabrication of calcium hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2) (HA) in a nanorange having whiskers- and cubic-shaped uniform particle morphology. The synthesized HA particles hold a promising feature as reinforcement fillers in dental acrylic resin composite. They increase the efficacy of reinforcement by length and aspect ratio, uniformity, and monodispersity. Therefore, the acrylic resin was reinforced with the as-synthesized monodispersed HA filler particles (0.2-1 Wt%). The presence of filler particles in the composite had a noticeable effect on the tribological and mechanical properties of the dental material. The morphological effect of HA particles on these properties was also investigated, revealing that cubic-shaped particles showed better results than whiskers. The as-fabricated composite (0.4 Wt%) of the cubic-shaped filler particles showed maximum hardness and improved antiwear/antifriction properties. Particle loading played its part in determining the optimum condition, whereas particle size also influenced the reinforcement efficiency. The current study revealed that particle morphology, particle size, uniformity, etc., of HA fillers, greatly influenced the tribological and mechanical properties of the acrylic resin-based nanocomposite. Improvement in the tribological properties of HA particle-reinforced acrylic resin composites (HA-acrylic resin) followed the trend as AR < CmC < WC < CC.

Abstract
Stereolithography is a useful additive manufacturing technique for the production of scaffolds for tissue engineering. Here we present a tuneable, easy-to-manufacture, photocurable resin for use in stereolithography, based on the widely used biomaterial, poly(caprolactone) (PCL). PCL triol was methacrylated to varying degrees and mixed with photoinitiator to produce a photocurable prepolymer resin, which cured under UV light to produce a cytocompatible material. This study demonstrates that poly(caprolactone) methacrylate (PCLMA) can be produced with a range of mechanical properties and degradation rates. By increasing the degree of methacrylation (DM) of the prepolymer, the Young's modulus of the crosslinked PCLMA could be varied from 0.12-3.51 MPa. The accelerated degradation rate was also reduced from complete degradation in 17 days to non-significant degradation in 21 days. The additive manufacturing capabilities of the resin were demonstrated by the production of a variety of different 3D structures using micro-stereolithography. Here, β-carotene was used as a novel, cytocompatible photoabsorber and enabled the production of complex geometries by giving control over cure depth. The PCLMA presented here offers an attractive, tuneable biomaterial for the production of tissue engineering scaffolds for a wide range of applications.

Abstract
Research on the incorporation of cutting-edge nano-antibacterial agent for designing dental materials with potent and long-lasting antibacterial property is demanding and provoking work. In this study, a novel resin-based dental material containing photocurable core-shell AgBr/cationic polymer nanocomposite (AgBr/BHPVP) was designed and developed. The shell of polymerizable cationic polymer not only provided non-releasing antibacterial capability for dental resins, but also had the potential to polymerize with other methacrylate monomers and prevented nanoparticles from aggregating in the resin matrix. As a result, incorporation of AgBr/BHPVP nanocomposites did not adversely affect the flexural strength and modulus but greatly increased the Vicker's hardness of resin disks. By continuing to release Ag+ ions without the impact of anaerobic environment, resins containing AgBr/BHPVP nanoparticles are particularly suitable to combat anaerobic cariogenic bacteria. By reason of the combined bactericidal effect of the contact-killing cationic polymers and the releasing-killing Ag+ ions, AgBr/BHPVP-containing resin disks had potent bactericidal activity against S. mutans. The long-lasting antibacterial activity was also achieved through the sustained release of Ag+ ions due to the core-shell structure of the nanocomposites. The results of macrophage cytotoxicity showed that the cell viability of dental resins loading less than 1.0 wt% AgBr/BHPVP was close to that of neat resins. The AgBr/BHPVP-containing dental resin with dual bactericidal capability and long term antimicrobial effect is a promising material aimed at preventing second caries and prolonging the longevity of resin composite restorations.

Abstract
Two approaches were used to synthesize two resins with different pore structures. In one way, the CH2Cl groups in macroporous chloromethylated polystyrene resin were transformed to methylene bridges, and achieved a hypercrosslinked resin with plentiful micropores (denoted GQ-06). In the other way, 50% of the CH2Cl groups in chloromethylated polystyrene resin was used to produce micropores, while the residual 50% of the CH2Cl groups was reacted with 2-aminopyridine, and prepared another resin with double pore structure of hypercrosslinked resin and macroporous resin (denoted GQ-11). The adsorption of salicylic acid (SA) on GQ-11 was investigated using GQ-06 as the reference adsorbent. The effect of pH on the adsorption of SA on GQ-06 was consistent with the dissociation curve of SA. The maximum adsorption capacity of SA on GQ-11 was observed at the solution pH of 2.64. The greater adsorption rate of SA on GQ-11 than that of GQ-06 was attributed to its double pore structure. The multifunctional adsorption mechanism of anion exchange and hydrophobic interaction resulted in the larger equilibrium capacity of SA on GQ-11 than that of GQ-06. GQ-06 and GQ-11 could be regenerated by absolute alcohol and 80% of alcohol -0.5mol/L of sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, respectively.

Abstract
Chemical degradation is an efficient method to obtain bio-oils and other compounds from lignin. Lignin bio-oils are potential substitutes for the phenol component of phenol formaldehyde (PF) resins. Here, we developed an analytical method based on high resolution mass spectrometry that provided structural information for the synthesized lignin-derived resins and supported the prediction of their properties. Different model resins based on typical lignin degradation products were analyzed by electrospray ionization in negative ionization mode. Utilizing enhanced mass defect filter techniques provided detailed structural information of the lignin-based model resins and readily complemented the analytical data from differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis. Relative reactivity and chemical diversity of the phenol substitutes were significant determinants of the outcome of the PF resin synthesis and thus controlled the areas of application of the resulting polymers.

Abstract
Novel in situ polymerizable liquid three-arm biodegradable oligomeric polyesters based upon glycolic acid (GA), L-lactic acid (LLA), and their copolymers are synthesized and characterized. Injectable and in situ curable polymer neat resins and their composites formulated with bioabsorbable beta-tricalcium phosphate are prepared at room temperature using photo- and redox-initiation systems, respectively. The cured neat resins show the initial compressive yield strength (YCS, MPa), modulus (M, MPa), ultimate compressive strength (UCS, MPa), and toughness (T, kN mm), ranging from 4.0 to 20.1, 201.5 to 730.2, 82.7 to 310.5, and 1.02 to 3.93. The cured composites show the initial YCS, M, UCS and T, ranging from 27.7 to 56.4, 1440 to 4870, 81.6 to 158.9, and 0.94 to 1.97. Increasing GA/LLA ratio increases all the initial compressive strengths of both neat resins and composites. Increasing filler content increases YCS and M but decreases UCS and T. A diametral tensile strength test shows the same trend as a compressive strength test. There seems to be an optimal flexural strength for the composite at the filler content around 43%. An increasing molar ratio increases curing time but decreases the degree of conversion (DC). An increasing filler content increases curing time but decreases exotherm and DC. During the course of degradation, all the materials show a burst degradation behavior within 24 h, followed by an increase in CS. The poly(glycolic acid) neat resin completely loses its strength at around Day 45. The composites completely lose their strengths at different time intervals, depending on their molar ratio and filler content. The degradation rate is found to be molar ratio and filler-content dependent.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of the paper was to investigate the antifungal activity of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) against Candida albicans. Some attempts have been made to find out the best way to introduce ZnONPs into polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) resin material and to determine some parameters of a newly formed composite. MATERIAL AND METHODS Zinc oxide nanoparticles were manufactured and their basic physical parameters were determined (average particle size, density, specific surface area). Minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of ZnONPs was determined for the Candida albicans standard strain. The average size of ZnO conglomerates in the monomer solution of PMMA resin was measured using a dynamic light scattering instrument. PMMA resin samples with incorporated ZnONPs were produced. The morphology of nanopowder and the newly formed composite was examined under a scanning electron microscope (SEM). In addition, the roughness parameter of PMMA resin material was investigated before and after ZnONPs modification. RESULTS Nanopowder with the average particle size of 30 nm, density of 5.24 g/cm3 and surface area of 39 m2/g was obtained. MIC was determined at the level of 0.75 mg/mL. The average size of ZnO conglomerates in the monomer solution of acrylic resin dropped by 11 times after ultrasound activation. SEM examination of a newly formed composite showed a successful introduction of ZnONPs confirmed by the energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) analysis. There were no statistically significant differences in the biomaterial roughness before and after the modification of ZnONPs. CONCLUSION Zinc oxide nanoparticles were successfully incorporated into acrylic resin used for the production of denture bases. The presence of nanoparticles with sizes below 100 nm was confirmed. Nevertheless a newly created composite needs to be further investigated to improve its homogeneity, and to check its microbiological properties, strength and biocompatibility prior to its possible clinical use.

Abstract
Molecularly well-defined tackifiers with up to 100 % bio-content were prepared from isosorbide and various cyclic anhydrides. These tackifiers are tacky over a broad temperature range and exhibit high maximum tack (ca. 2000 kPa). Structural modifications shift the temperature at which maximum tack is observed and change the viscosity of the tackifiers.

Abstract
In this study, highly cross-linked and completely imidized polyimide aerogels were prepared from polyimide containing trimethoxysilane side groups, which was obtained as the condensation product of polyimide containing acid chloride side groups and 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane. After adding water and acid catalyst, the trimethoxysilane side groups hydrolyzed and condensed one another, and a continuous increase in the complex viscosities of the polyimide solutions with time was observed. The formed polyimide gels were dried by freeze-drying from tert-butyl alcohol to obtain polyimide aerogels, which consisted of a three-dimensional network of polyimide fibers tangled together. By varying the solution concentration of the polyimide containing trimethoxysilane side groups, polyimide aerogels with different densities (ranging from 0.19 to 0.42 g/cm(3)) were obtained. The resulting polyimide aerogels had small pore diameter (ranging from 20.7 to 58.3 nm), high surface area (ranging from 310 to 344 m(2)/g), high 5% weight loss temperature in air (at about 440 °C), and an excellent mechanical property. In addition, the glass transition temperature (349 °C) of the polyimide aerogels was much higher than that (210 °C) of the corresponding linear polyimide. So, even after being heated at 300 °C for 30 min, the porous structure of the polyimide aerogels was not completely destroyed.

Abstract
Urea-formaldehyde resins are bulk products of the chemical industry. Their synthesis involves a complex reaction network. The present work contributes to its elucidation by presenting results from detailed NMR spectroscopic studies with different methods. Besides (1)H NMR and (13)C NMR, (15)N NMR spectroscopy is also applied. (15)N-enriched urea was used for the investigations. A detailed NMR signal assignment and a model of the reaction network of the hydroxymethylation step of the synthesis are presented. Because of its higher spectral dispersion and the fact that all key reactions directly involve the nitrogen centers, (15)N NMR provides a much larger amount of detail than do (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy. Symmetric and asymmetric dimethylol urea can be clearly distinguished and separated from monomethylol urea, trimethylol urea, and methylene-bridged urea. The existence of hemiformals of methylol urea is confirmed. 1,3,5-Oxadiazinan-4-on (uron) and its derivatives were not found in the reaction mixtures investigated here but were prepared via alternative routes. The molar ratios of formaldehyde to urea were 1, 2, and 4, the pH values 7.5 and 8.5, and the reaction temperature 60 °C.

Abstract
A novel tertiary amine containing urethane dimethacrylate monomer UDMTA was synthesized with the aim of replacing Bis-GMA as one component of dental restorative materials. The structure of UDMTA was confirmed by FT-IR and (1)H-NMR spectra. UDMTA was incorporated into Bis-GMA/TEGDMA (50 wt%/50 wt%) resin system to replace Bis-GMA partly and totally. Double bond conversion, polymerization volumetric shrinkage, water sorption and solubility, flexural strength and modulus of UDMTA containing resin formulations were studied with neat Bis-GMA/TEGDMA resin formulation as a reference. Results showed that UDMTA could be used as a coinitiator in photocurable dental resin, UDMTA containing resin had higher double bond conversion and lower polymerization shrinkage than that of Bis-GMA/TEGDMA resin, and the UDMTA containing copolymer had higher flexural strength and flexural modulus than Bis-GMA/TEGDMA copolymer. When UDMTA was used to replace more than 25 wt% of Bis-GMA, the obtained copolymer had higher water sorption and solubility. The optimized resin composition is by replacing 25 wt% of Bis-GMA in Bis-GMA/TEGDMA (50/50 by wt%), for the prepared resin had the best comprehensive properties.

Abstract
The preparation of scaffolds to facilitate the replacement of damaged tissues and organs by means of tissue engineering has been much investigated. The key properties of the biomaterials used to prepare such scaffolds include biodegradability, biocompatibility and a well-defined three-dimensional 3-Dpore network structure. In this study a poly(D,L-lactide)/nanosized hydroxyapatite (PDLLA/nano-Hap) composite resin was prepared and used to fabricate composite films and computer designed porous scaffolds by micro-stereolithography, mixing varying quantities of nano-Hap powder and a liquid photoinitiator into a photo-crosslinkable PDLLA-diacrylate resin. The influence of nano-Hap on the rheological and photochemical properties of the resins was investigated, the materials being characterized with respect to their mechanical, thermal and morphological properties after post-preparation curing. In the cured composites stiffness was observed to increase with increasing concentration of nanoparticles. A computer designed construct with a pore network based on the Schwarz architecture was fabricated by stereolithography using PDLLA/nano-Hap composite resins.

Abstract
Three isomers of mono-caffeoylquinic acid, specifically, 3-O-caffeoylquinic acid, 4-O-caffeoylquinic acid and 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid, were successfully isolated from a crude extract of tobacco (Nicotiana tobaccum L.) wastes using continuous resin-based pre-separation and preparative high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The extract of tobacco wastes was continuously pre-separated by resin-based columns packed with D101 and XAD-4, yielding total mono-caffeoylquinic acids with a purity of 67.71% and a recovery rate of 90.06%. Variables affecting resolution and productivity of three mono-caffeoylquinic acid isomers in preparative HPLC (i.e. mobile-phase composition, pH, flow rate and loading amount) were studied. The optimum chromatographic conditions were determined to be a mobile phase consisting of 15% (v/v) methanol and aqueous acetic acid with a pH of 4.5, a flow rate of 4.0 mL/min, a loading amount of 4 mL and a detection wavelength of 360 nm. From 300 mg of loading sample, 56.3 mg of 3-O-caffeoylquinic acid, 92.8 mg of 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid and 73.1 mg of 4-O-caffeoylquinic acid were obtained in a single run, each with a purity of over 98% by HPLC. The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by ESI-MS, (1) H-NMR and (13) C-NMR spectral data.

Abstract
AIM To compare and evaluate few physical properties of epoxy resin, resin-modified gypsum and conventional type-IV gypsum die material. MATERIALS AND METHODS In the present study, dimensional accuracy, surface detail reproduction and transverse strength of three die materials like epoxy resin (Diemet-E), resin-modified gypsum (Synarock) and conventional type-IV gypsum (Ultrarock) are analyzed. For dimensional accuracy, master die (Bailey's die) is used and calibrations were made with digital microscope. For surface detail reproduction and transverse strength, rectangular stainless steel master die (Duke's die) was used and calibrations were made with Toolmaker's microscope and Instron universal testing machine respectively. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed on the means and standard deviation for groups of each test. RESULTS The results of the study showed statistically significant difference among these materials in dimensional accuracy, surface detail reproduction and transverse strength. CONCLUSION Epoxy resin exhibited superiority in dimensional accuracy, surface detail reproduction and transverse strength and is nearest to the standards of accurate die material.

Abstract
A series of macroporous adsorption resins (MARs) with novel structure were synthesized on the basis of the Friedel-Crafts catalyzed and amination reaction. Adsorption feature of the synthetic resins with respect to the purification effect were investigated systemically by employing rutin as the adsorbate. Different from traditional adsorption patterns, the results showed interesting conclusions: (1) With the increase in the temperature of the experiment, the adsorption capacity increased gradually; with the increase in the concentration of the initial solution, the adsorption capacity increased to the maximum and then decreased gradually. (2) The classical models that the inductive effect transmitted to the first layer and the adsorption process contained in one compartment could not explain our experimental results reasonably. Thus, a new adsorption isotherm model that the inductive effect passed on to a higher layer and a new adsorption kinetics model in which the adsorption process contained more compartments were created according to the multiparameter theory and Karickhoff's theory by investigating the regression of the experimental results. The conclusion that the inductive effect passed to the fourth layer and the adsorption process contained four compartments was drawn.

Abstract
Two new chelating resins possessing multiple functional groups capable of coordinating with several metal ions are reported. The resins were synthesized by condensing Schiff bases derived from 2-aminophenol, 2-hydroxy-5-chloroaniline and terephthaldehyde with formaldehyde in an alkaline medium. The effects of pH and contact time of the Cu(2+) and Pb(2+) in aqueous solutions on the uptake behavior of the resins were studied. The metal ion uptake behavior of the resins was investigated by the batch method. Both the uptake and the selectivity of the resins towards the investigated metal ions were related to the structure of the resins, type of the metal ion and the uptake conditions. The resins showed maximum uptake capacity for Cu(2+) and Pb(2+) at pH 10. Cu(2+) was seen to undergo preferential adsorption in separate and mixture solutions of Cu(2+) and Pb(2+). Kinetic studies for the resins using Langmiur equation were also performed. The Schiff base monomers and their formaldehyde resins were characterized by elemental analyses, FTIR and (1)H NMR spectroscopy. The thermal stability of the resins was studied using TGA/DTG analysis.

Abstract
Glycidyl methacrylate/methelenebisacrylimide resin loaded with tetraethelenepentamine ligand was prepared and investigated. The adsorption characteristics of the obtained resin towards Reactive Black 5 (RB5) from aqueous solutions at different experimental conditions were established by means of batch and column methods. The mechanism of interaction between RB5 and resin's active sites was discussed. The resin showed high affinity for the adsorption of RB5 where an uptake value of 0.63 mmol/g was reported for the obtained resin, at 25 °C. The kinetics and thermodynamic behavior of the adsorption reaction were also defined. These data indicated an endothermic spontaneous adsorption process and kinetically followed the pseudo-second order model. Breakthrough curves for the removal of RB5 were studied at different flow rates and bed heights. The critical bed height for the studied resin column was found to be 0.764 cm at flow rate of 8 mL/min. The adsorbed dye was eluted from the investigated resin effectively. Regeneration and durability of the loaded resin towards the successive resin were also clarified.

Abstract
New quaternized crosslinked poly(4-vinylpyridines) prepared by nucleophilic substitution reactions of 4-vinylpyridine: divinylbenzene copolymers of gel and porous structure with halogenated compounds such as benzyl chloride and 2-chloracetone, were used to remove Cr(VI) from the aqueous solution. Batch adsorption studies were carried out to determine the effect of the initial concentration of Cr(VI), pH, temperature and the presence of sulfate anions. The process was found to be pH and concentration dependent. The adsorption capacities increase with the increase of the initial concentration of Cr(VI) and both resins exhibited the degrees of usage of the exchange capacities higher than 90% and good efficiency in the chromium removal. Equilibrium modeling of the process of Cr(VI) removal was carried out by using the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. The experimental data obeyed these isotherm models. The thermodynamic parameters (free energy change ΔG, enthalpy change ΔS and entropy change ΔH) for the adsorption have been evaluated and therefore, it was showed the spontaneous and endothermic process of the adsorption of Cr(VI) on the pyridine resins. In the competitive adsorption studies, chromate/sulfate revealed the selectivity of the pyridine adsorbents towards chromium ions. At acidic pH the synthesized pyridine resins offer much greater chromate removal capacities compared to alkaline pH. In the competitive adsorption studies, chromate/sulfate revealed the selectivity of the pyridine adsorbents towards chromium ions due to the formation a sandwich arrangement with the chromium anion and functional groups attached to the quaternary nitrogen atom.

Abstract
This study investigated the antibacterial effect of a resin composite matrix with or without incorporated triclosan (0.3 wt%) on Streptococcus mutans, Actinomyces viscosus and Lactobacillus casei. In the quantitative assay, bacterial suspensions were filled into 20-μl cavities within temporary restorative resins. After 0, 4, 8, 12, 24 and 48 h of incubation, the suspensions were removed from the restoratives and the numbers of viable bacteria were determined. Bacterial suspensions incubated without restoratives served as the controls. Ten replicates were carried out for each experiment. The resin composite containing triclosan demonstrated variable degrees of antibacterial activity against the microorganisms, revealing a significant inhibitory effect on S. mutans within 12 h compared to the control. The viable counts of A. viscosus significantly decreased after 24 h. A significant reduction of L. casei was observed after 48 h. The unloaded resin composite did not reveal a marked antibacterial effect. The resin composite loaded with triclosan might be beneficial in preventing cavity contamination and minimizing the risk of pulpal irritation in the short-term.

Abstract
We have synthesized the novel composite membranes composed of sulfonated polyimide nanofibers and sulfonated polyimide for proton exchange membrane fuel cell. It was clear that the polyimides within nanofiber were significantly oriented or aggregated when electrospun; as the result, the membrane stability, such as oxidative and hydrolytic stabilities, of the composite membrane was significantly improved with an increase in nanofiber, and oxygen permeability of the composite membrane also decreased when compared to that determined in the membrane without nanofibers. In addition, the proton conductivity of the membrane in the parallel direction indicated a significantly higher value when compared to that determined for the membrane in the perpendicular direction or for the membrane without nanofibers prepared with conventional solvent-casting method. Consequently, nanofibers proved to be promising materials as a proton exchange membrane and the composite membrane containing nanofibers may have potential application for use in fuel cells.

Abstract
A new chelating resin, poly[N-(4-bromophenyl)-2-methacrylamide-co-2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid-co-divinylbenzene], was synthesized and characterized. The resin was used for selective separation, preconcentration and determination of Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Cd(II), Pb(II), Mn(II) and Fe(III) ions in water samples by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. Effects of pH, concentration and volume of elution solution, sample flow rate, sample volume and interfering ions (Na(+), K(+), Ca(2+), Mg(2+), Fe(3+), Mn(2+), Al(3+), Zn(2+), Pb(2+), Cu(2+), Ni(2+), Cd(2+), Cl(-) and SO(4)(2-)) on the recovery of the analytes were investigated. The sorption capacity of the resin was 25.6, 19.8, 32.1, 41.3, 38.9, 13.9 and 18.3 mg g(-1) for Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Cd(II), Pb(II), Mn(II) and Fe(III), respectively. A high preconcentration factor, 100, and low relative standard deviation, <or=2.5% (n=7) values were obtained. The detection limits (microg L(-1)) were 0.57 for Cu(II), 0.37 for Ni(II), 0.24 for Co(II), 0.09 for Cd(II), 1.6 for Pb(II), 0.19 for Mn(II) and 0.72 for Fe(III). The method was validated by analysing fortified lake water (TMDA-54.4, a trace element fortified calibration standard) and spiked water samples. The method was applied to the determination of the analytes in tap and lake water samples.

Abstract
A new p-tert-[(dimethylamino)methyl]-1,3-bisglyciyl-calix[4]arene functionalized aminopropylpolysiloxane resin (APPS-CA) has been prepared and investigated for selective solid-phase extraction (SPE) of trace Cr (III), Cu (II), Ni (II), Co (II) and Zn (II) prior to their determination by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The characterization of the surface modification was performed on the basis of FT-IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis and thermal gravimetric analysis. The separation/preconcentration conditions of analytes were investigated, including effect of pH, the shaking time, the sample flow rate and volume, the elution condition, the interfering ions and stability test. At pH 4.0, the maximum adsorption capacity of Cr (III), Cu (II), Ni (II), Co (II) and Zn (II) were 47.2, 34.3, 52.8, 29.8 and 36.4 mg g(-1), respectively. The adsorbed metal ions were quantitatively eluted by 2.0 mL of 0.5 mol L(-1) HCl. Common coexisting ions did not interfere with the separation. According to the definition of International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, the detection limits (3 sigma) of this method were found to be 0.58, 0.33, 0.47, 0.61 and 0.14 ng mL(-1) for Cr (III), Cu (II), Ni (II), Co (II) and Zn (II), respectively. The relative standard deviation under optimum conditions is less than 4.0%. The application of this new adsorbent to preconcentration trace Cr (III), Cu (II), Ni (II), Co (II) and Zn (II) of two water samples gave high accurate and precise results.

Abstract
A natural component, sesamin (SA), was used to replace conventional amine as co-initiator for dental composite. A combination of camphorquinone (CQ) and SA was employed to initiate the photopolymerization of 2-2-bis[4-(2-hydroxy-3-methacryloxyprop-1-oxy)phenyl] propane/triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (70/30wt.%). The kinetics was recorded by real-time Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The mechanical properties were measured by dynamic mechanical analysis, the cell toxicity was investigated by MTT assay and a mixture of CQ and ethyl 4-N,N-dimethylaminobenzoate (EDMAB) was used as control in the same photocuring condition. The results indicated that the addition of SA as co-initiator greatly improved the rate of polymerization and final double-bond conversion (DC) when compared with the system initiated by CQ alone. Compared with EDMAB, the final DC of the CQ/SA system (71%) was slightly lower than that of CQ/EDMAB (76%); SA resulted in approximately the same storage modulus at around 37 degrees C, but a slightly higher glass transition temperature. SA produced lower yellowing effect and good in vitro biocompatibility. The water sorption and solubility for two mixtures were very close and within the range of the ISO 4049 specification. These results suggest that SA is an effective alternative co-initiator to conventional amine. The natural compound characteristics of SA make it more promising than amine in dental resin formulations.

Abstract
The wood of Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) was liquefied in phenol with H2SO4 and HCl as catalysts. The liquefied wood was reacted with formalin to prepare the novolak PF resin. The results showed that the reaction of liquefied Japanese cedar with formalin was an exothermic reaction, and formed a solid-like resin without extra heating. Two novolak PF resins were prepared from the liquefied wood which were identified as SF and CF that using the liquefied wood with H2SO4 and HCl as catalyst respectively. The novolak PF powder displayed thermo-melting characteristic. The resins of SF and CF had weight average molecular weight of 3638 and 3941 respectively and melting temperature of 149.4 degrees C and 127.5 degrees C respectively. Both of the novolak resins could be used to make moldings with good performance by mixing the novolak resin with wood powder, hardener and zinc stearate at the weight ratio of 60:30:10:1 and hot-pressed under 200 degrees C for 10min.

Abstract
Biocompatible polycaprolactone (PCL) and hydroxyapatite (HA) were fabricated into nanofibrous scaffolds for the mineralization of osteoblasts in bone tissue engineering. PCL and PCL/HA nanofibrous surface were modified using oxygen plasma treatment and showing 0 degrees contact angle for the adhesion and mineralization of osteoblast cells. The fiber diameter, pore size and porosity of nanofibrous scaffolds were estimated to be 220-625 nm, 3-20 microm, and 87-92% respectively. The ultimate tensile strength of PCL was about 3.37 MPa and PCL/HA was 1.07 MPa to withstand the long term culture of osteoblasts on nanofibrous scaffolds. Human fetal osteoblast cells (hFOB) were cultured on PCL and PCL/HA surface modified and unmodified nanofibrous scaffolds. The osteoblast proliferation rate was significantly (p < 0.001) increased in surface-modified nanofibrous scaffolds. FESEM showed normal phenotypic cell morphology and mineralization occurred in PCL/HA nanofibrous scaffolds, HA acting as a chelating agent for the mineralization of osteoblast to form bone like apatite for bone tissue engineering. EDX and Alizarin Red-S staining indicated mineral Ca(2+) and phosphorous deposited on the surface of osteoblast cells. The mineralization was significantly increased in PCL/HA-modified nanofibrous scaffolds and appeared as a mineral nodule synthesized by osteoblasts similar to apatite of the natural bone. The present study indicated that the PCL/HA surface-modified nanofibrous scaffolds are potential for the mineralization of osteoblast for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
The effect of phenol on the biological treatment of wastewaters from a resin producing industry was analyzed in a pre-denitrification system. First, the effect of phenol overloads on the removal of organic matter and nitrogen compounds was studied. During the overloads (from 250 to 4000 mg/L), phenol was detected in the effluent of the anoxic reactor but the system recovered fast after stopping the overloads. The total organic carbon (TOC) removal remained unchanged during phenol addition (91.9% at 0.20 kg TOC/m3 d), except for the highest overload. With regard to total Kjeldahl nitrogen (TKN), its mean removal (87.9% at 0.08 kg TKN/m3 d) was not affected by the phenol overloads. Afterwards, the effect of different phenol concentrations on the biological treatment of these wastewaters was analyzed. Phenol concentrations from 250 to 4000 mg/L were added to the feed. Phenol was completely removed despite the presence of other carbon sources in the wastewater. In spite of the presence of phenol, a TOC removal around 91.3% was achieved at an average organic loading rate of 0.11 kg TOC/m3 d. The mean applied nitrogen loading rates were 0.05 and 0.08 kg TKN/m3 d, obtaining TKN removals around 85.8% and 87.1%, respectively. Therefore, the biological treatment of wastewaters from a resin producing industry in a pre-denitrification system was not affected by the presence of phenol.

Abstract
Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of alkanethiols (ATs) on gold can be used to fabricate surfaces for nanoscience and biology. The chemical structure of the interface can be tailored simply by modifying the AT headgroup. To streamline access to different precursor ATs, we developed a general solid-phase synthetic route. A key feature of this route is the use of a modified resin containing an AT linker ("AT resin") because it minimizes purification steps. The precursor to the AT resin was prepared in five steps, and all of the synthetic intermediates are stable solids that can be purified by crystallization. Accordingly, the AT resin can be prepared on a multigram scale. The utility of the AT resin was evaluated by using it to generate a variety of ATs. For example, ATs presenting different types of integrin-binding ligands (linear and cyclic RGD derivatives) were prepared and used to form arrays of SAMs that support cell adhesion. Additionally, the AT resin also provides a starting point for the synthesis of ATs presenting reactive groups (e.g., an amine-reactive AT or a maleimide-containing alkanedisulfide) or protein immobilization tags (e.g., biotin-AT). Thus, our synthetic strategy provides a convenient and flexible means for the synthesis of the necessary building blocks for custom SAMs and SAM arrays.

Abstract
Novel non-PEG derived polyether resins, coined SLURPS (Superior Liquid Uptake Resins for Polymer-supported Synthesis), were studied for their performance in solid-phase synthesis. Novel amino functional resins, SLURPS-NH2, were prepared with a loading of up to 8.5 mmol/g and employed successfully in the solid-phase synthesis of Leu-Enkephalin. The peptide was obtained with the same purity when compared to its synthesis with commercial standard poly(dimethyl acrylamide) resins. Furthermore we show loading and cleavage of aromatic carboxylic acids in excellent yield. The advantageous solvent compatibility of our support was demonstrated through the biphasic dihydroxylation of alkenes with OsO4 in t-BuOH/water mixtures producing bound 1,2-diols and synthesis and removal of a bound oxime using ethanol/water mixtures both in excellent yields. Reactions were easily monitored by gel-phase NMR and FTIR. These results show that SLURPS are very well suited for organic transformations using highly polar solvent mixtures and reagents and at much higher loading levels than standard amphiphilic resins of similar solvent compatibility.

Abstract
A novel grafted polymer for selective extraction and sequential separation of lanthanides, thorium and uranium from high acidic wastes has been developed by grafting Merrifield chloromethylated (MCM) resin with octyl(phenyl)-N,N-diisobutylcarbamoyl-methylphosphine oxide (CMPO) (MCM-CMPO). The grafting process is well characterized using FT-IR spectroscopy, (31)P and (13)C CPMAS (cross-polarized magic angle spin) NMR spectroscopy and CHNPS elemental analysis. The influence of various physico-chemical parameters during metal ion extraction by the resin phase are studied and optimized by both static and dynamic methods. The resin shows very high sorption capacity values of 0.960mmolg(-1) for U(VI), 0.984mmolg(-1) for Th(IV), 0.488mmolg(-1) for La(III) and 0.502mmolg(-1) for Nd(III) under optimum HNO(3) medium, respectively. The grafted polymer shows faster rate exchange kinetics (<5min is sufficient for 50% extraction) and greater preconcentration ability, with reusability exceeding 20 cycles. During desorption process, sequential separation of the analytes is possible with varying eluting agents. The developed grafted resin has been successfully applied in extracting Th(IV) from high matrix monazite sand, U(VI) and Th(IV) from simulated nuclear spent fuel mixtures. All the analytical data is based on triplicate analysis and measurements are within 3.5% rsd reflecting the reproducibility and reliability of the developed method.

Abstract
A wide variety of highly substituted lactam containing peptidomimetic scaffolds are prepared by solid-phase synthesis from a single, versatile class of resin-bound aldehyde intermediates (1). These include monocyclics 3, bicyclics 4, tricyclics 5, and tetracyclics 6. The key intermediate 1 is readily synthesized from resin-bound natural or unnatural alpha-amino acids. The synthetic procedures permit the construction of a large diversity of substitution patterns for ready use in combinatorial chemistry. In every case, the release of final products from resin is by a cyclitive cleavage process. Since this depends on successful completion of multiple intermediate synthetic steps, the products are often quite pure, even though previous steps involve only a filtration workup. The mild conditions for many of these synthetic procedures offer the promise of using this chemistry in peptide fragment condensations to produce modified peptides, at either the N-terminus or C-terminus, or as individually assembled peptide segments with a wide variety of conformationally restricted peptidomimetic linkers at the point of juncture.

Abstract
During the last decades lignin has been investigated as a promising natural alternative to petrochemicals in phenol-formaldehyde (PF) resin production, due to their structural similarity. Physico-chemical characterization of three types of lignin, namely kraft pine lignin (L1), soda-anthraquinone flax lignin (L2), and ethanol-water wild tamarind lignin (L3) has been evaluated to determine which one is the most suitable chemical structure for above purpose. Characterization has been performed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry ((1)H NMR) to analyse the chemical structure, gel permeation chromatography (GPC) for determining molecular weight (MW) and molecular weight distribution (MWD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to measure the glass transition temperature and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) to follow the thermal degradation. Both structural and thermal characteristics suggest that kraft pine lignin (L1) would be a better phenol (P) substitute in the synthesis of lignin-phenol-formaldehyde (LPF) resins, as it presents higher amounts of activated free ring positions, higher MW and higher thermal decomposition temperature.

Abstract
Previously, we have reported the development and application of self-indicating resins (SIR), materials which can indicate presence or absence of amines in the reaction solution by the conspicuous color change of a phenolsulfophthalein type dye immobilized on resin beads [2a]. Although the functionality necessary for attaching the dye to the resins could be readily introduced by the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling during the synthesis of the SIR 1, this approach was only applicable to the dyes containing suitable functionality for the cross-coupling reaction. In this article we describe a new approach of immobilizing the indicating dyes onto the resin support. The dyes suitable for loading onto aminomethyl polystyrene (PS) resin were prepared by Friedel-Crafts reaction of 2-sulfoterephthalic anhydride with a wide range of phenols. Using this new route, the SIR 6c was readily prepared in >100g quantities. Use of the SIR 6c in the synthesis of a 144 member urea library was demonstrated and the SIR successfully indicated the endpoint of the reaction between amines and isocyanates.

Abstract
The synthesis of a new stable chelating resin from the polystyrene divinylbenzene copolymer is reported. The polystyrene is first functionalized with a phenolic group and then allowed to couple with diazotized anthranilic acid through the --N==N-- bond. The resulting polymer containing azophenolcarboxylate with an ONO chelating environment has been characterized by elemental analysis, hydrogen ion capacity, and water regain value. Its stability towards thermal and different chemical environments has been evaluated. The sorption capacity of the chelating resin for Cr(III) and Cr(VI) as a function of pH has been studied. The interesting point is that chromium(III) is selectively retained at ca. pH 5.0 and chromium(VI) at ca. pH 2.0. When packed in a column, the new material is able to separate Cr(III) from Cr(VI). Five replicate determinations of 10 microg Cr(III) and 10 microg Cr(VI) present in 100 mL solution gave recoveries of 96.9+/-2.9% (for Cr(III)) and 96.2+/-2.1% (for Cr(VI)) at the 95% confidence level. Calibration graph was linear over the concentration range of 0-250 microg L(-1) of chromium species with correlation coefficient (R) of 0.99994. The detection limits based on 3sigma criterion were determined to be 0.6 microg L(-1) for Cr(III) and 0.9 microg L(-1) for Cr(VI). The developed method was successfully used for the speciation of chromium in wastewater.

Abstract
5,11,17,23-Tetrakis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-25,26-dihydroxy-27,28-crown-4-calix[4]arene in the cone conformation was synthesized. This p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene-1,2-crown-4 compound was then anchored with Merrifield chloromethylated resin beads. The modified polymeric resin was characterized by (1)H NMR, FT-IR and elemental analysis and used successfully for the separation and preconcentration of Cu(II), Cd(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) prior to their determination by FAAS. Effective extraction conditions were optimized in both batch and column methods. The resin exhibits good separating ability with maximum between pH 6.0-7.0 for Cu(II), pH 6.0 for Cd(II), pH 5.0 for Co(II), pH 4.0-4.5 for Ni(II), and pH 4.5 for Zn(II). The elution studies were carried out with 0.5 mol L(-1) HCl for Cu(II), Co(II) and Co(II), 1.0 mol L(-1) HCl for Cd(II) and Zn(II). The sorption capacity, preconcentration factor and distribution coefficient of each metal ion were determined. The detection limits were 1.10, 1.25, 1.83, 1.68 and 2.01 microg L(-1) for Cu(II), Cd(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II). The influence of several ions on the resin performance was also investigated. The validity of the proposed method was checked for these metal ions in NIST standard reference material 2709 (San Joaquin Soil) and 2711 (Montana Soil).

Abstract
A new approach for isolation and identification of elecrtophilic mutagens from complex matrix was developed. Thiosulfonic anion was immobilized onto polystyrene beads and used as separation media. Potassium polystyryl-thiosulfonate, prepared from polystyrylsulfonyl chloride and KHS, was observed to selectively react with model electrophilic mutagens such as alkyl halides, a-chloroketones and alpha-chloroesters to produce polystyryl-thiosulfonic esters. After separation from other nonreactive organic compounds, the beads then reacted with ethanethiol to produce unsymmetrical ethyl disulfides which are easily detected by GC/MS. For one mutagenic compound, only one unsymmetrical disulfide was found to contain its structure part. Thus, the structure of the parent mutagens could be deduced from that of the unsymmetrical disulfides. The degree of functionalization of the potassium polystyryl-thiosulfonate resin was 1.11 mmol/g. Its reactivity was discussed and its recycling method was reported here.

Abstract
Aqueous solutions of ionic liquids have been used as novel and environmentally friendly reaction media to synthesize and "control" the size of different cross-linked polymer beads by suspension polymerization reactions. It was found that the investigated ionic liquids can act as novel stabilizing agents of the suspensions as a result of their surface-active properties. The results have demonstrated that the average size of polymer beads can be varied from the macro- to the nanoscale and their surface area can also be "adjusted" by this synthetic approach. Furthermore, the use of a combination of ionic liquids and water for the synthesis of polymers, the simple isolation of the products formed in this polymerization procedure, as well as the recycling of the continuous medium for further reactions open up possibilities for the development of "new and green" polymerization processes.

Abstract
Wang resin has been converted to a supported initiator for transition metal-mediated living radical polymerization often called atom-transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of 2-vinyl-4,4-dimethyl-5-oxazolone (VDM) and styrene (S). Several "Rasta" resins with well-defined macromolecular architectures, including homopolymers PVDM, PS, statistical P(S-stat-VDM), block P(S-b-VDM), and P[S-b-(S-stat-VDM)] copolymers, have been elaborated. For the homopolymerization of VDM and S, a sacrificial initiator, benzyl 2-bromoisobutyrate (BBI), has been introduced to monitor the evolution of molar masses and polydispersity indexes (PDIs) of PS and PVDM onto the Wang resin support without cleavage. After 6 h, 86.7% conversion of VDM is reached, with the isolated PVDM chains having a molar mass of 18 000 g mol(-1) and a PDI value of 1.22. Block copolymers have been synthesized in two steps, involving the synthesis of the PS block isolated at low conversions (<15%) to maintain the bromine end-chain functionality and the subsequent synthesis of the second PVDM or P(S-stat-VDM) block. Polydispersity indexes of the cleaved (co)polymers were low (PDI = 1.11-1.44), and high azlactone loadings have been reached (loading = 6.0 mmol g(-1)). Such azlactone-functionalized Wang resins have shown high efficiency during the scavenging process of benzylamine as monitored by HPLC. Moreover, grafted statistical copolymers have shown the best behavior for removing benzylamine because of an improvement of the accessibility of azlactone rings by the dilution with styrene units.

Abstract
A chloromethylated styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer was post-cross-linked through Friedel-Crafts reaction to get a macroreticular resin adsorbent NA-01, and then chemically modified by dimethylamine to obtain an aminated adsorbent NA-01A. Batch adsorption runs of p-nitrophenol from aqueous solution onto adsorbent NA-01A were conducted to evaluate the effect of amino group on adsorption. The adsorption capacity of p-nitrophenol on NA-01A increased noticeably by comparison with the mother adsorbent. A linear relationship was observed between the adsorption capacity of NA-01A caused by amination and the equilibrium concentration of p-nitrophenol in aqueous solution, which can be reasonably elucidated by a modified isotherm equation based on the Freundlich model. The breakthrough curves on both adsorbents were experimentally determined and also predicted by the mathematic model based on the non-linear wave propagation theory and the corresponding isotherm model. The model based on the Freundlich model gave a good prediction of the breakthrough curve on NA-01, but a deviation occurred for NA-01A when C/C0 less than 0.3. However, another model based on the modified isotherm equation provided a better prediction for the breakthrough curves on NA-01A.

Abstract
Barcoded resins (BCRs) were recently introduced as a potential platform for pre-encoded multiplexed synthesis, screening, and biomedical diagnostics. A key step toward the development of this strategy is the ability to rapidly interrogate and classify the BCRs in a high-throughput, noninvasive manner. Here, we describe a one-step strategy based on Raman mapping and Fourier transform infrared imaging to classify and spatially resolve randomly distributed BCRs. To illustrate this methodology, mixtures of up to 25 different BCRs were imaged and classified with 100% confidence. This strategy can be readily extended to a larger pool of resins, provided each BCR features a unique vibrational fingerprint (spectroscopic barcode). We have also established that reliable single-bead Raman spectra can be recorded in 10 ms, thus confirming that Raman mapping, in particular, could be a very fast method to classify the BCRs.

Abstract
The isolation of both specific and nonspecific binding proteins on affinity matrices bearing bioactive compounds hinders the identification of drug cellular targets. Although solid-phase elution and competition methods conventionally are used to distinguish between specific and nonspecific receptor-ligand interactions, these approaches often are severely restricted by low ligand solubility and/or slow kinetic dissociation. This article describes an alternative and versatile method, termed serial affinity chromatography, to identify ligand receptors using affinity resins.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), zinc-dependent endopeptidases, are implicated in tumor progression. We describe herein the development of a resin-immobilized, broad-spectrum synthetic MMP inhibitor for selective binding of the active forms of MMPs from different experimental samples. We confirmed the activity-based binding of MMPs to the inhibitor-tethered resin with purified human recombinant MMP-2, -9, and -14, samples of cultured cells, and tissue extracts. Our results show that only the free active MMPs, and not the zymogens or MMP/TIMP (enzyme-protein inhibitor) complexes, bound specifically to the resin. In our comparison of benign and carcinoma tissue extracts, we detected active MMP-2 and MMP-14 forms only in the cancerous tissue samples, indicating that a pool of the tumor MMPs is free of endogenous inhibitors (TIMPs), and is thus likely to contribute to proteolytic events that precipitate tumor metastasis.

Abstract
The synthesis of a novel high-loading polyethylene-imine resin (ULTRAMINE) is described, and its application as a scavenger resin in various acylation reactions is demonstrated. The inverse suspension polymerization technique was used for the synthesis of well-defined spherical polymer beads. Polymer beads with different cross-linking densities were synthesized according to the degree of acryloylation of the polyethylene-imine polymer. The resin was characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. The size, shape, and morphological features of the resin were demonstrated by microscopy. The resin showed excellent swelling properties in both polar and nonpolar solvents. The chemical stability of the resin in various reagents and solvents was investigated and monitored by IR spectroscopy. The mechanical stability of the beads was determined by a single-bead compressive experiment. The ULTRAMINE beads can be used as an excellent scavenger for excess acylating reagent, as demonstrated for a variety of reactions. ULTRAMINE-red resin was derived from ULTRAMINE through exhaustive reduction of the amide carbonyl groups to yield an all-amine resin.

Abstract
[reaction: see text] Most of the reactants immobilized on conventional solid-phase resins are buried inside the interiors of lightly cross-linked polystyrene beads. An orthogonal support of solid-phase resins needs to be small enough to penetrate the interpolymeric chain spaces of a swollen resin to reach reaction sites. In this paper, we report the use of magnetic nanoparticles ( approximately 4 nm) as an orthogonal matrix to assist solid-phase reactions. A magnetic nanoparticle-supported homogeneous Pd catalyst was employed for promoting the Suzuki cross-coupling of an aryl halide on resins and an excessive arylboronic acid in solution. The workup separating three components (the catalyst, product, and remaining arylborate) is a chromatography-free process. The Pd catalyst was magnetically isolated and recycled from the reaction mixture by applying an external magnetic field. Then, a filtration process was followed to recover the excess borate reagent from the resins/product. Our work here presents the first example of an orthogonal matrix of solid-phase resins and shows the promise of employing nanomaterials in organic synthesis.

Abstract
Large uniform-sized polymer beads are desirable for "one-bead-one-compound" applications in the combinatorial synthesis of compound libraries. We have developed a technique for the preparation of large polymer spheres with narrow size distributions. Uniform-sized poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) beads with diameters in excess of 1 mm have been prepared by free radical polymerization in an ascension process through a heated column. The size of the beads can be adjusted by the diameter of the injection needle and the injection speed. The resin beads can be made porous by the incorporation of a porogen during the preparation; they reach a specific surface area in excess of 200 m(2)/g. The mechanical properties of the spheres and their use in organic synthesis have been studied.

Abstract
An overview of the applications of Nalpha-(1-phenyl-2-mercaptoethyl) auxiliary is presented. We describe the on resin preparation (Calpha-carboxy and thioester) of Nalpha-auxiliary derivatives of glycine and the synthesis and incorporation of preformed Nalpha-auxiliary derivatives of glycine and alanine with the protection schemes, including the thiazolidine strategy for SPPS. Such approaches allowed the synthesis of the protein cytochrome b562 as well as native circular peptides after successful removal of the auxiliary.

Abstract
In the present study, a hydrophilic bifunctional polymeric resin (LS-2) with sulfonic groups was synthesized, and the adsorption performance of three aniline compounds, aniline, 4-methylaniline, and 4-nitroaniline onto LS-2 was compared with that on the commercial Amberlite XAD-4. The uptake of the aniline compounds on LS-2 is a procedure of coexistence of physisorption and chemisorption and obeys the pseudo-second order rate equation, while the uptake of the compounds on XAD-4 is merely a physical adsorption and follows the pseudo-first order rate equation. All the isothermal data fit well with the Freundlich model, and the values of K(F) of the compounds adsorbing on LS-2 are much higher than those on XAD-4 suggesting the higher adsorbing capacities on LS-2 than those on XAD-4, which may be attributed to the microporous structure and the polar groups on the network of LS-2 resin. Dynamic adsorption and desorption studies for aniline on LS-2 show that the breakthrough adsorption capacity and the total adsorption capacity are 0.96 and 1.24 mmol per milliliter resin, respectively. Nearly 100% regeneration efficiency for the adsorbent was achieved by 5% hydrochloric acid.

Abstract
Hybrid peptidic-synthetic amphiphilic block copolymers, synthesized by living free radical polymerization (LFRP) on solid support, have been utilized as precursors for nanoscale materials possessing bio-available peptides. LFRP initiators, coupled to the peptide terminus upon the resin, facilitated the growth of homo- and block copolymers via nitroxide mediated radical polymerization (NMRP) or atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP). Herein, the versatile solid-support synthesis of the antimicrobial peptide tritrpticin, coupling of living free radical polymerization initiators to the peptide-loaded resin, and the controlled radical polymerization of various monomers to yield amphiphilic diblock copolymers are described. Assembly of the peptidic-synthetic block copolymers into micelles and a preliminary assessment of their in vitro biological properties are detailed.
