Formation of non-spherical polymersomes driven by hydrophobic directional aromatic perylene interactions

Polymersomes have become a powerful tool in drug delivery and synthetic biology, but their use can be restricted by a lack of versatile methods for shape control. Here the authors demonstrate access to a range of non-spherical polymersome morphologies by exploiting hydrophobic directional aromatic p...

Formation of non-spherical polymersomes driven by hydrophobic directional aromatic perylene interactions
description Polymersomes have become a powerful tool in drug delivery and synthetic biology, but their use can be restricted by a lack of versatile methods for shape control. Here the authors demonstrate access to a range of non-spherical polymersome morphologies by exploiting hydrophobic directional aromatic perylene interactions within the membrane structure.
