Lyotropy as a Design Consideration for Ultra-Small Protein Nanoparticles via Electrohydrodynamic Jetting

Iqbal, M. H.; Zelaya, J.; Ong, Q.; Stellacci, F.; Lahann, J. Macromol. Rapid. Commun. 2025, e00533

 

In a collaborative study with the group of Francesco Stellacci at the EPFL, Dr. Iqbal investigated the effect of salt addition to the Electrohydrodynamic Jetting Process of Albumin Protein Nanoparticles: already very low concentrations of added salt, around 1–5 mM, lead to a narrow distribution of particle sizes that are consistently below 100 nm. Moreover, the variation of anions modulates the size following the Hofmeister Series as SO42− < CO32− < H2PO4− < Cl− < I−.

Deep-Learning-Assisted Affinity Classification for Humoral Immunoprotein Complexes

Dadfar, B.; Vaez, S.; Haret, C.; Koenig, M.; Hafshejani, T. M.; Franzreb, M.; Lahann, J. Small Struct. 2024, 5, 2400204

 

This comprehensive study finds that the pretrained convolutional neural network (CNN) InceptionV3 not only successfully categorizes IgGs from four different species but also predicts their binding affinity to Protein A using polarized light images of stain patterns from their mixed solutions. The classification accuracy regarding the various IgG/Protein A ratios generally correlates with the binding strength of the protein–protein–complex as confirmed via circular dichroism spectroscopy.

Photo-Arbuzov Reactions as a Broadly Applicable Surface Modification Strategy

Plank, M.; Berardi, A.; Welle, A.; Sauter, E. Krolla, P.; Haret, C.; Koenig, M.; Stahlberger, M.; Hassan, Z.; Oßwald, S.; Bräse, S.; Lahann, J. Advanced Functional Materials. 2024, 34, 2403408

 

This work investigates the Arbuzov reaction of halogenated polymer coatings readily available via CVD polymerization, using poly(4-chloro-para-xylylene) (Parylene C) as a model substance. Spatially controlled post-polymerization modification of these coatings via catalyst-free and UV-induced Arbuzov reaction using phosphites results in localized patterns of phosphonate-functionalized polymers.
