spelling Nanogel Formation from Dilute Solutions of Clickable Elastin-like Recombinamers and its Dependence on Temperature: Two Fractal Gelation ModesGonzález de Torre, IsraelQuintanilla Sierra, LuisPinedo Martín, GuillermoRodríguez Cabello, José CarlosAlonso Rodrigo, MatildeNanogelesProducción CientíficaDiluted, complementary, click-reactive elastin-like recombinamer (ELR) solutions have been prepared and mixed at two different temperatures, one below and one above the characteristic transition temperature (Tt) of these chemically modified ELRs. FTIR measurements, size, aspect ratio, zeta potential, and microrheological measurements have been carried out on the nanostructures formed under these dilute conditions as a way to better understand the relationship between the final macroscopic properties of ELR-based hydrogels and the molecular conditions governing the initial stages of the chemical cross- linking process that occurs, especially its dependence on the preparation temperature relative to Tt. As a result, two different fractal modes of gel formation have been found at the two temperatures studied (above and below Tt). Thus, when the reaction mixture is prepared below Tt, essentially one-dimensional linear nanogels with a high aspect ratio are obtained. In contrast, 3D nanogels are formed above Tt, with spherical shapes predominating. These different structures seem to reflect the two molecular organizations of the single components of the mixture under these conditions, namely extended chains below Tt and a spherical arrangement above Tt. In addition to the interest in these nanogels as models for understanding the formation of microscopic structures and differential macroscopic properties under more conventional hydrogel-formation conditions, these nanogels are of interest because of their thermoresponsiveness and biocompatibility, which provide them with potential uses for drug delivery and other biomedical applications in living systems.Junta de Castilla y León (programa de apoyo a proyectos de investigación – Ref.
