The TMICMs were then prepared through an in situ photoinitiated ATRP method by using N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAm) as the thermo-responsive backbone monomer.
Incorporation of low levels of bis-functional Cy3 (poly-Cy3) and/or Cy5 dye (poly-Cy3/5 or poly-Cy5) co-monomers in the responsive polymer backbone allowed detailed probing of the pH mediated hydrophobic association using a combination of optical spectroscopic techniques.
This polymer, poly([2,2′- propane-2,2-diylbis [2,2′- propane-2,2-diylbis [2,2′- propane-2,2-diylbis [2,2′- propane-2,2-diylbismethylene dipiperidine), (poxy-β-aminoester ketal-2) contains two pH responsive moieties within its bis ethane-2,1-diyl
"The way we see it is because we have these sensors in the bulb — and if you think about it, generally lights are the most common electronic devices in a building, whether it's residential or commercial, we view it as we become the backbone of a responsive sensor network throughout the house," adds Joseph.
Thermal and photo responsive copolymer based on N-vinylamide backbone was designed.
Rev. 75(2) (1997) 105 117) Model of "innovative" and "functional" products and the corresponding "market responsive" and "physically efficient" supply chains constitutes the backbone of this assessment.
The pS2/TFF1 reporter vector contains 1.3 kb of the proximal promoter of the estrogen-responsive gene TFF1 cloned in the pGL3-basic backbone [68].
Glycerol metabolism, needed to provide the backbone for the glycerolipid biosynthesis, was significantly responsive, with a combined accumulation of the proteins of this pathway of more than 50-fold.
It was shown that by attaching PNIPAAM chains to the backbone of a hydrophilic cellulose derivative, a strongly temperature-responsive copolymer could be prepared.
The use of polymers as building blocks for surface modification allows the preparation of "smart" or responsive surfaces that operate based on conformational changes in the polymer backbones.
Thus, it would appear that Vmid is mainly responsive to the presence of a primary phosphate group located relatively near the glycerol backbone.
