Advances in nanomedicine, including early cancer detection, targeted drug delivery, and
personalized approaches to cancer treatment are on the rise. For example, targeted drug …

Ions differ in their ability to salt out proteins from solution as expressed in the lyotropic or
Hofmeister series of cations and anions. Since its first formulation in 1888, this series has …

Abstract In 1968, Heskins and Guillet published the first systematic study of the phase
diagram of poly (N‐isopropylacrylamide)(PNIPAM), at the time a “young polymer” first …

Hydrogels, which are hydrophilic soft porous networks, are an important class of materials of
broad relevance to bioanalytical chemistry, soft‐robotics, drug delivery, and regenerative …

Atmospheric moisture contains huge amounts of water and energy potential, which,
benefiting from the advances of nanomaterials, hold great promise in delivering circular …

Thermoresponsive polymers constitute an important class of materials for biomedical
application due to their thermally reversible coil-to-globule transition which can be exploited …

In this study, we reviewed state-of-the-art endogenous-based and exogenous-based stimuli-
responsive drug delivery systems (DDS) for programmed site-specific release to overcome …

Stimuli-responsive polymers have gained increasing attention, which is attributed to the
manifold applications they can be used for. Several years' intensive research was invested …

Specific ion effects in aqueous polymer solutions have been under active investigation over
the past few decades. The current state-of-the-art research is primarily focused on the …

Introduction: Drug delivery systems (DDSs) are important for effective, safe, and convenient
administration of drugs. pH-and ion-responsive polymers have been widely employed in …
