Supporting islet function in a PVDF membrane based macroencapsulation delivery device by solvent non-solvent casting using PVP. by Denise F A de Bont, Sami G Mohammed, Rick H W de Vries, Omar Paulino da Silva Filho, Vijayaganapathy Vaithilingam, Marlon J Jetten, Marten A Engelse, Eelco J P de Koning, Aart A van Apeldoorn

“…We hypothesize that by incorporating polyvinyl-pyrrolidone (PVP) into a PVDF solution the permeability of PVDF membranes for insulin and glucose can be improved by solvent-non solvent casting to create submicrometer porous films. We show that the use of water-soluble PVP, can significantly increase glucose diffusion through these membranes while still having the ability to block immune cells from migrating through these membranes. …”

r1 and r2 Relaxivities of Dendrons Based on a OEG-DTPA Architecture: Effect of Gd3+ Placement and Dendron Functionalization by Peter Fransen, Daniel Pulido, Lorena Simón-Gracia, Ana Paula Candiota, Carles Arús, Fernando Albericio, Miriam Royo

“…The highest gain in relaxivity was produced by decorating the dendron surface with peptide sequences, which could be explained by the presence of more second-sphere water molecules attracted by the peptides. These findings could contribute to the development of more effective contrast agents, either by placing the paramagnetic gadolinium ion in a strategic position or through functionalization of the dendron surface.…”
