UV Alignment of SD1 Photoalignment Layer SD1 photoalignment layers were aligned by irradiating the samples in air with 5 mW cm−2 linearly polarized light (λ = 365 nm that is close to the absorption peak of SD1) from a Thorlabs CS2010 UV-curing LED system equipped with a WP25M-UB broadband wire-grid polarizer.

AbstractArtificial organelles can manipulate cellular functions and introduce non-biological processes into cells. Coacervate droplets have emerged as a close analog of membraneless cellular organelles. Their biomimetic properties, such as molecular crowding and selective partitioning, make them promising components for designing cell-like materials.

Anti-PEG antibodies enriched in the protein corona of PEGylated nanocarriers impact the cell uptake† Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) is the gold standard used to reduce unspecific protein adsorption and prolong nanocarrier circulation time. However, this stealth effect could be counteracted by the increasing prevalence of anti-PEG antibodies in the bloodstream.
