Dissipative self‐assembly leads to structures and materials that exist away from equilibrium
by continuously exchanging energy and materials with the external environment. Although …

Controlling the where and when of a chemical reaction, rather than just the if, can be an
essential component in the successful development of applications. There are a large …

Dissipative self-assembly is ubiquitous in nature, where it gives rise to complex structures
and functions such as self-healing, homeostasis, and camouflage. These phenomena are …

The chemical reagents used to achieve a predictable and programmable time control of the
pH of water solutions are reviewed with the purpose to present a toolbox of instruments to be …

Hydrogen ion autocatalytic reactions, especially in combination with an appropriate negative
feedback process, show a wide range of dynamical phenomena, like clock behavior …

Abstract Mucopolysaccharidosis II (MPS II) is a lysosomal storage disorder (LSD), caused by
iduronate 2-sulphatase (IDS) enzyme dysfunction. The neuropathology of the disease is not …

Feedback through enzyme reactions creates new possibilities for the temporal programming
of material properties in bioinspired applications, such as transient adhesives; however …

Autocatalytic pH clocks can be useful to control self-assembly in the time domain. Their
applications are, however, limited by the currently available toolbox. We describe here an …

Enabling complexation of weak polyelectrolytes, in the presence of a programmable pH-
modulation, offers a means to achieve temporal control over polyelectrolyte coassembly …

Self-regulating materials require embedded control systems. Active networks of enzymes
fulfill this function in living organisms, and the development of chemical controls for synthetic …
