Ionic liquids (ILs) are solvents that have many desirable properties. For example, they are easier to handle than volatile organic solvents and they dissolve cellulose. However, many are harmful. The toxicity of ILs is in part due to their effects on cell membranes. In this study, we have observed effects of (tetradecyl)tributylphosphonium acetate ([P$_{14444}$][OAc]),...

Fabry disease is a lysosomal storage disorder, where the lack of α-Galactosidase A (GLA) causes accumulation of glycosphingolipids leading to damage of the kidneys, heart and nervous system. With current treatments, free GLA is injected intravenously in patients causing instability of GLA, high immunogenicity, and low bioavailability. To overcome this, liposomes has been developed that can...

Poly(glycerol monomethacrylate)–poly(benzyl methacrylate) (PGMA–PBzMA) diblock copolymer micelles were synthesized via polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) using reversible additional–fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT) aqueous emulsion polymerization in D$_2$O. PISA reactions produce polymer nanoparticles in situ during the reaction and can be performed at high particle concentrations....
