Journal Article
Catania, R., Onion, D., Russo, E., Zelzer, M., Mantovani, G., Huett, A., & Stolnik, S. (2022). A mechanoresponsive nano-sized carrier achieves intracellular release of drug on external ultrasound stimulus. RSC Advances, 12(26), 16561-16569. https://doi.org/10.1039/d2ra02307e

Control over intracellular release of therapeutic compounds incorporated into nano-carriers will open new possibilities for targeted treatments of various diseases including cancer, and viral and bacterial infections. Here we report our study on mech... Read More about A mechanoresponsive nano-sized carrier achieves intracellular release of drug on external ultrasound stimulus.

Processing and interpretation of core-electron XPS spectra of complex plasma-treated polyethylene-based surfaces using a theoretical peak model (2022)
Journal Article
Bruggeman, M., Zelzer, M., Dong, H., & Stamboulis, A. (2022). Processing and interpretation of core-electron XPS spectra of complex plasma-treated polyethylene-based surfaces using a theoretical peak model. Surface and Interface Analysis, 54(9), 986-1007. https://doi.org/10.1002/sia.7125

Interpretation of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectra of complex material surfaces, such as those obtained after surface plasma treatment of polymers, is confined by the available references. The limited understanding of the chemical surfa...

Quantifiable correlation of ToF-SIMS and XPS data from polymer surfaces with controlled amino acid and peptide content (2022)
Journal Article
Taylor, M., Simoes, F., Smith, J., Genapathy, S., Canning, A., Lledos, M., …Zelzer, M. (2022). Quantifiable correlation of ToF-SIMS and XPS data from polymer surfaces with controlled amino acid and peptide content. Surface and Interface Analysis, 54(4), 417-432. https://doi.org/10.1002/sia.7052

Peptide-coated surfaces are widely employed in biomaterial design, but quantifiable correlation between surface composition and biological response is challenging due to, for example, instrumental limitations, a lack of suitable model surfaces or lim...
