Abstract

Outsmarting the barrier: Conventional poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) coated particles (green with light purple border) are immobilized in human mucus networks by adhesive interactions (red) with the mucus mesh (black lines). A dense, low molecular weight PEG coating (blue) uniquely endows nanoparticles with a mucoinert surface that enables their rapid mucus penetration (trajectory indicated by grey line).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
