Article Abstract
In this work, a new phosphonium-containing cationic polyelectrolyte () has been rationally designed and developed via a facile click-chemistry type postfunctionalization, which can form complexes with highly polarizable anionic cyanines to significantly reduce the strong and random cyanine-cyanine interactions (i.e., aggregation) in the solid-state. This material design strategy enables an efficient translation of the favorable molecular properties of cyanines into macroscopic material properties. One of such complexes exhibits a very large third-order susceptibility over 10 esu with low nonlinear optical loss suitable for all optical signal processing.

Reversible electroadhesive polyelectrolyte gels have emerged as promising materials for flexible electronic and soft robotic applications. While current research predominantly emphasizes polymer design and structural optimization to enhance both the reversibility and strength of electroadhesion, fundamental limitations persist in elucidating ion-mediated interfacial mechanisms. Herein, the synergistic effects of ion species selection and interfacial engineering were systematically investigated through the development of distinct polyelectrolyte hydrogel assemblies.

Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has emerged as a powerful analytical tool for dye monitoring in environmental waters; however, challenges remain in resolving complex mixtures due to spectral overlap and limited signal reproducibility. To address this issue, a dual-channel SERS system integrated with machine learning (ML) was developed. Positively and negatively charged polyelectrolyte-modified FeO@SiO-Au substrates were employed for the selective detection of anionic and cationic dyes, respectively.

Higher-ordered nucleic acid structures like triplex and quadruplex forms have been the center of attention of the current research field of medicinal chemistry. The triplex is formed through the sequence-specific association of a single-stranded, triplex-forming oligonucleotide (TFO) with nucleic acid duplex structures. In our present study, we have focused on an RNA triplex (U.

Synapses are highly specialized sites of asymmetric cell-cell contact that mediate information transfer between neurons. Many proteins have been identified that contribute to the complex processes that underlie the formation, organization, and maintenance of synapses, and the molecular biology of synapse formation is increasingly well understood. Surprisingly, synaptic differentiation does not require a cellular target.

Cellulose particles of 200-250 nm size, stable for 18 days in a water-salt medium, are proposed as a model of biodegradable microplastics. The particles are characterized by means of dynamic light scattering, laser microelectrophoresis, differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetry (TG) and IR spectroscopy. The complexation of cellulose particles with toxicants - cationic polymers (kaustamin, poly-l-lysine hydrobromide and poly(N-ethyl-4-vinylpyridinium) bromide), as well as the composition of the resulting complexes and their ability to dissociate into the initial components in water-salt media is discussed.
