Glucose-Responsive Polyelectrolyte Capsules

De Geest, Bruno G., Jonas, Alain M., Demeester, Joseph, De Smedt, Stefaan C.·2006·Langmuir

Abstract

Phenylboronic acids are known to form covalent complexes with polyol compounds such as glucose. A novel polyelectrolyte, containing phenylboronic acid as a glucose-sensitive moiety, has been synthesized and used for the fabrication of glucose-sensitive hollow polyelectrolyte capsules using the layer-by-layer technique. The response to glucose was observed as a rather fast dissolution of the capsules when brought into contact with a glucose-containing medium. These polyelectrolyte capsules are the first polyelectrolyte capsules able to respond to a stimulus that can be provided by the human body (i.e., an increase in glucose concentration). Therefore, the concept we present has promising applications in the biomedical field for the controlled delivery of insulin.

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.
