General description

[2-(Methacryloyloxy)ethyl]dimethyl-(3-sulfopropyl)ammonium hydroxide (DMAPS) is a hygroscopic, zwitterionic monomer used in the synthesis of polysulfobetaines. Polysulfobetaines are electrically neutral polymers that contain both cationic and anionic groups within a single monomer unit and feature interesting properties such as antielectrolyte behavior in aqueous salt solutions, biocompatibility, and hemocompatibility. Based upon these properties, polysulfobetaines are useful in many biomedical applications such as drug delivery and drug formulation.

Application

Due to its hygroscopic nature, [2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]dimethyl-(3-sulfopropyl)ammonium hydroxide (DMAPS) can contain up to one molecule of water per monomer unit. This material should be stored in a cool, dry place and depending on the reaction conditions, water may need to be removed prior to polymerization.

To overcome the drawbacks of the UV grafting method, an alternative, thermal grafting process is suggested. The uniform and geometry-independent grafting of zwitterionic polymers on curved cross-linked polyethylene (CLPE), which is used in artificial hip joints, surface was successfully achieved.

New insights about nanomaterials' biodistribution revealed their ability to achieve tumor accumulation by taking advantage from the dynamic vents occurring in tumor's vasculature. This paradigm-shift emphasizes the importance of extending nanomaterials' blood circulation time to enhance their tumor uptake. The
