AbstractBifunctional polybases of the partially quaternized poly[thio-1-(N,Ndiethylaminomethyl) ethylene] type (Q(PTDAE),X, with X = percentage of N-quaternization) are able to catalyze various reactions including lipophilic reagents temporarily entrapped in the hydrophobic core of the globules. In this contribution it is shown that benzyloxycarbonyl (Z) and fluoromethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc) protecting groups of peptides are cleaved at room temperature in a few minutes in an aqueous medium at pH 7,4. Deprotection was also effective when peptides were attached to solid supports of the Merrifield type provided a hydrophilic spacer arm of the poly(ethylene glycol)-type was inserted between beads and the built up peptide moieties. However, unhooking was observed when the hydrophilic spacerpeptide bond was an ester but not when it was of the amide type. The work shows that Q(PTDAE),X globules exhibit enzyme-like activity in a homogeneous aqueous medium and in heterogeneous systems as well.

Poly Ethylene

Addition reactions of multi-functional amine, polyethylene imine (PEI) or diethylenetriamine (DETA), and poly(ethylene glycol) diglycidyl ether (PEGDE) or poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA), have been investigated to obtain network polymers in H2O, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and ethanol (EtOH). Ring opening addition reaction of the multi-functional amine and PEGDE in H2O at room temperature or in DMSO at 90 °C using triphenylphosphine as a catalyst yielded gels. Aza-Michael addition reaction of the multi-functional amine and PEGDA in DMSO or EtOH at room temperature also yielded corresponding gels. Compression test of the gels obtained with PEI showed higher Young’s modulus than those with DETA. The reactions of the multi-functional amine and low molecular weight PEGDA in EtOH under the specific conditions yielded porous polymers induced by phase separation during the network formation. The morphology of the porous polymers could be controlled by the reaction conditions, especially monomer concentration and feed ratio of the multi-functional amine to PEGDA of the reaction system. The porous structure was formed by connected spheres or a co-continuous monolithic structure. The porous polymers were unbreakable by compression, and their Young’s modulus increased with the increase in the monomer concentration of the reaction systems. The porous polymers absorbed various solvents derived from high affinity between the polyethylene glycol units in the network structure and the solvents.

Quartz crystal microbalances (QCM) are transducers for chemical and biochemical sensing. The oscillation frequency of QCM is affected by the adsorbed mass on the surface. In this work, a new room temperature type gas sensor device fabricated by organically hybridized plasma deposition of tetramethyltin (TMT) and oxygen. Post treatment with poly ethylene glycol (PEG) was developed to detect the ambient environmental smother, and the responses of the fabricated sensor to smother detection were investigated. SnO x C y thin films on the sensor electrodes were obtained by plasma deposition from TMT and O 2 gas mixtures at room temperature. A spin coating post treatment on the SnO x C y thin films turns into hydrophilic property. The response of the QCM sensor to the smother detection shows a frequency drop during the burning of candle and has good detection sensitivity with Δf equal to 2400 Hz. Repeated smother testing with the QCM type smother detection sensor also indicates the stability of the fabricated sensor.

A new concept for simultaneous detection of two model proteases based on immobilized fluorescently labelled peptides was developed and evaluated. Each probe was composed of a carrier modified by poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) chains, a specifically cleavable linker, and a fluorescent dye incorporated in the peptide tail. Based on a single excitation–double emission fluorescence response of liberated fluorophores caused by enzymatic cleavage, the presence of a single or both proteases in a mixture was unambiguously determined in an experimentally established concentration range. Among the tested solid supports, Rink Amide PEGA resin was recognized as the most suitable choice from the perspective of on-resin enzyme assays.
