cross-linked structure

Nanogels with cross-linked structure provide a versatile platform for storage and release of proteins.

Among these could be the ability to separate the proteins (or other biomolecules) in cross-linked structures, and to identify, repair, and replace them.

"We now know that nature can do all kinds of things including nanotubes, cross-linked structures and shock-absorbing coils," said Demirel.

It then condenses to form a cross-linked structure of 4 residues, either Desmosine or Isodesmosine.

After exposing and developing, its highly cross-linked structure gives it high stability to chemicals and radiation damage - hence the name "resist".

The double bond of unsaturated polyesters reacts with a vinyl monomer, usually styrene, resulting in a 3-D cross-linked structure.

Although the exact mechanism is not well understood, DATEM appears to interact with the hydrophobic parts of gluten, helping its proteins unfold and form cross-linked structures.

In positive resists the regions damaged by protons are removed by chemical development to produce structures, whereas in negative resists the development procedures remove the undamaged resist leaving the cross-linked structures behind.
