Abstract:Magnetite nanoparticles coated with quaternized poly(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (PDEAEMA) (PQDEA@MNP) and functionalized with bisphenol A (BPA)-specific peptide aptamer (CKSLENSYC) were synthesized and used as nano-adsorbents for selective adsorption with BPA. The polymer coated on the particles provided their good stability and dispersibility in water, and the aptamer provided selective adsorption with BPA targets. Fourier transformed infrared spectrophotometry (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) an… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
