Abstract

We have designed oxidation-responsive vesicles from synthetic amphiphilic block copolymers ("polymersomes") of ethylene glycol and propylene sulfide. Thioethers in the hydrophobic poly(propylene sulfide) block are converted into the more hydrophilic sulfoxides and sulfones upon exposure to an oxidative environment, changing the hydrophilic-lipophilic balance of the macroamphiphile and thus inducing its solubilization. Here we sought to explore generation of the oxidative environment and induction of polymersome destabilization through production of hydrogen peroxide by the glucose-oxidase (GOx)/glucose/oxygen system. We studied the encapsulation of GOx within polymersomes, its stability and activity, and glucose-triggered polymersome destabilization. Stimulus-responsive polymersomes may find applications as nanocontainers in sensing devices and as drug delivery systems.

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.
