Self-Assembly of Poly(l-glutamate)-block-poly(2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) in Aqueous Solutions
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The self-assembly and gene delivery applications of poly(l-glutamate)-block-poly(2-(diethylamino)ethyl methacrylate) (PLG18-b-PDEAEMA37) were investigated. Owing to the functional groups on the polymer, an amine and a carboxylic acid group, the self-assembly process is dependent on the solution pH, where the critical micelle concentration was determined to be 61 and 320 µg mL–1 at high and low pH, respectively. The block copolymer forms positively charged vesicles at low pH with a hydrodynamic radius of 90 nm and negatively charged vesicles at high pH with a hydrodynamic radius of 50 nm. At the isoelectric point of 4.9, PLG-b-PDEAEMA was found to form larger micellar aggregates with a hydrodynamic radius of 180 nm because of the presence of both positive and negative charges. The complexation between PLG-b-PDEAEMA and DNA was studied at physiological pH as well as at low and high pH. DNA is condensed most effectively at pH 3, at an N/P ratio of 5, whereas at pH 7 and 10, an N/P ratio of 20 is required. However, in-vitro studies at physiological pH using neuroblastoma cells did not show substantial gene expression.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
