Surfaces with anionic block copolymers can inactivate different viruses within minutes by making the polymer-microbe interface very acidic. Such surfaces can continuously disinfect surfaces without ...

Biological enzymes don’t wait to bump into their targets inside of cells but make quick chemical work by sliding and hopping around on their DNA and RNA substrates. Now a team led by Wilhelm T. S.

Responsive polymers and smart materials adapt to stimuli, providing solutions to drug delivery, tissue engineering, and even ...
