    • Amyloid-like fibrils from a diphenylalanine capped with an aromatic fluorenyl 

      Martí Ballesté, Dídac; Mayans Tayadella, Enric; Gil, Ana M.; Díaz Andrade, Angélica María; Jimenez Sanz, Ana Isabel; Yousef, Ibraheem; Keridou, Ina; Cativiela, Carlos; Puiggalí Bellalta, Jordi; Alemán Llansó, Carlos (2018-11-19)
      Article
      Open Access
      The self-assembly behavior of a diphenylalanine amphiphile blocked at the C-terminus with a 9-fluorenylmethyl ester and stabilized at the N-terminus with a trifluoroacetate (TFA) anion, TFA·FF-OFm, has been examined. At ...

    • Biobased terpene derivatives: stiff and biocompatible compounds to tune biodegradability and properties of poly(butylene succinate) 

      Zeinali, Reza; Valle Mendoza, Luis Javier del; Franco García, María Lourdes; Yousef, Ibraheem; Rintjema, Jeroen; Alemán Llansó, Carlos; Bravo López, Fernando; Kleij, Arjan W.; Puiggalí Allepuz, Jordi (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022-01-01)
      Article
      Open Access
      Different copolymers incorporating terpene oxide units (e.g., limonene oxide) have been evaluated considering thermal properties, degradability, and biocompatibility. Thus, polycarbonates and polyesters derived from aromatic, ...

    • Isothermal crystallization kinetics of poly(4-hydroxybutyrate) biopolymer 

      Keridou, Ina; Valle Mendoza, Luis Javier del; Funk, Lutz; Turon, Pau; Yousef, Ibraheem; Franco García, María Lourdes; Puiggalí Bellalta, Jordi (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2019-08-01)
      Article
      Open Access
      Thermal properties and crystallization kinetics of poly(4-hydroxybutyrate) (P4HB) have been studied. The polymer shows the typical complex melting behavior associated to different lamellar populations. Annealing processes ...

    • Medicated scaffolds prepared with hydroxyapatite/streptomycin nanoparticles encapsulated into polylactide microfibers 

      Kadkhodaie Elyaderani, Amirmajid; Lama Odría, María del Carmen Elizabeth de; Rivas Cañas, Manuel; Martínez Rovira, Immaculada; Yousef, Ibraheem; Puiggalí Allepuz, Jordi; Valle Mendoza, Luis Javier del (2022-01-24)
      Article
      Open Access
      The preparation, characterization, and controlled release of hydroxyapatite (HAp) nanoparticles loaded with streptomycin (STR) was studied. These nanoparticles are highly appropriate for the treatment of bacterial infections ...

    • PEGylated micro/nanoparticles based on biodegradable poly(ester amides): Preparation and study of the core–shell structure by synchrotron radiation-based FTIR microspectroscopy and electron microscopy 

      Makharadze, Davit; Kantaria, Temur; Yousef, Ibraheem; Valle Mendoza, Luis Javier del; Katsarava, Ramaz; Puiggalí Bellalta, Jordi (Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2024-06-26)
      Article
      Open Access
      Surface modification of drug-loaded particles with polyethylene glycol (PEG) chains is a powerful tool that promotes better transport of therapeutic agents, provides stability, and avoids their detection by the immune ...
