Disease relevance of Polymethyl methacrylate

 

Psychiatry related information on Polymethyl methacrylate

  • Although several of the analogs produced up to 50-60% MDMA-appropriate responding, none [with the exception of N-methyl-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-aminopropane (PMMA)] resulted in stimulus generalization [6].
 

High impact information on Polymethyl methacrylate

  • One group underwent dialysis with the widely used cuprophane dialysis membrane, which activates the complement system and leukocytes, and the other group underwent dialysis with a synthetic polymethyl methacrylate membrane, which has a more limited effect on complement and leukocytes [1].
  • METHODS: 180 patients with acute renal failure were randomly assigned bioincompatible Cuprophan (n=90) or polymethyl-methacrylate (n=90) membranes [2].
  • Vis-NIR spectra of all structures were analyzed to reveal the internal architecture with each PS sphere correlating to 21-23 PMMA particles (a LI21-23 stoichiometry), which corresponded well with computer models [7].
  • In situ hydrogenation of terminal halogen in poly(methyl methacrylate) by ruthenium-catalyzed living radical polymerization: direct transformation of "polymerization catalyst" into "hydrogenation catalyst" [8].
  • Intriguing surface morphologies composed of relatively ordered nanoscale domains were found from mixed brushes with PS M(n) slightly smaller than or similar to that of PMMA after treatment with acetic acid, a selective solvent for PMMA [9].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Polymethyl methacrylate

 

Biological context of Polymethyl methacrylate

  • The Janus micelles were obtained via cross-linking the middle block of a microphase-separated PS-block-PB-block-PMMA triblock copolymer in the bulk state, followed by alkaline hydrolysis of the poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) ester groups [15].
  • Real-time LDR-spFRET detection of point mutations in the K-ras gene was accomplished in PMMA microfluidic devices using sheath flows [16].
  • Over the force range investigated, each modified surface was found to induce a significantly different degree of cell adhesion than that caused by PMMA [17].
  • We believe that the PMMA with high molecular weight enwraps the rare earth complexes and keeps the donors and acceptors close, which results in the effective intermolecular energy transfer and, consequently, the high sensitization efficiency [18].
  • Furthermore, SEM observations highlighted two different patterns of bacterial adhesion (isolated bacteria and clusters of bacteria), assuming that hydrophobic IOLs (silicone and PMMA) probably facilitate bacterial colonization and biofilm production [19].
 

Anatomical context of Polymethyl methacrylate

  • Depletion of ionized calcium markedly reduced PMMA-mediated neutrophil degranulation in the extracorporeal circuit [3].
  • Placement of a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) contact lens on the cornea caused swelling rates of 15-28 microns/hr compared to 0-6 microns/hr in paired control corneas [20].
  • The detection of human immunoglobulin M (IgM) was performed using capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection (CCD) in electrophoresis carried out in conventional capillaries as well as on glass and poly(meth-yl methacrylate) (PMMA) microdevices [21].
  • PURPOSE: To determine changes in topographical thickness of the epithelium and total cornea after hydrogel (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate; HEMA or soft lens) and PMMA rigid contact lens wear with eyes closed, as measured by optical coherence tomography (OCT) [22].
  • Actin filaments were seen to move precisely only on the PMMA tracks, and their traces drew the exact shapes of the tracks [23].
