The dynamic nature of the disulfide bond has enhanced the potential for disulfide based
amphiphiles in the emerging biomedical field. Disulfide containing amphiphiles have …

In this study, a series of polysulfide polymers were synthesized using aqueous monomer
(sodium sulfide) and organic monomers (methylene dichloride, ethylene dichloride, 1, 4 …

Sulfur-containing polymers are polymers containing at least one sulfur atom in the repeat
units of their main chains. The incorporation of sulfur atoms into the polymer main chains …

Significance: Nucleic acids such as gene-encoding DNAs, gene-silencing small interfering
RNAs, or recombinant proteins addressing intracellular molecular targets present a major …

This featured article brings together recent advances in the field of smart polymers systems
which incorporate reversible crosslinks based on aromatic disulfides. The reversibility of …

Dextran sulfate (DXS) is a hydrophilic, non-toxic, biodegradable, biocompatible and safe
biopolymer. These biomedically relevant characteristics make DXS a promising building …

Nanoscale carriers that stably load drugs in blood circulation and release the payloads in
desirable sites in response to a specific trigger are of great interest for smart drug delivery …

We report the fabrication of single-chain polymer nanoparticles (SCNP) that can reversibly
undergo a coil to particle transition via formation and cleavage of intramolecular disulfide …

We present herein a mild and rapid method for the modular functionalization of
polysaccharides. Several ene‐functional charged and neutral polysaccharides, that is …

As typical of sulfur-containing polymers, polythiourea is a promising polymeric material
because of its outstanding properties such as self-healing, high refractive index, high …
