Synthesis of NIPMAM Polymer Particles
The particles are purified by five times centrifugation (Beckman-Coulter Avanti™ J-301 Centrifuge, rotor: JA-30.50, USA, 15 000 rpm (27216 G), 20 °C, 30 minutes), decantation and redispersion with purified water.
Synthesis of Deuterated NIPMAM Microgels
Furthermore, we synthesized co-polymer microgels of NIPMAM and D7-NIPMAM in different ratios. For the co-monomer synthesis, the two monomers were added at the same time. The deuterated/hydrogenated ratios were 0/100, 25/75, 50/50, 75/25, and 100/0.
Synthesis of Fluorescent Polymer Hydrogels
(97%, NIPMAM), the cross-linker N,N′-methylenebis(acrylamide) (99%, BIS), the surfactant sodium
dodecyl sulfate (SDS), the initiator ammonium persulfate (98% APS)
and polyethylenimine (PEI, branched, Mw 25.000 g/mol) were purchased
from Sigma-Aldrich, Zwijndrecht, The Netherlands. The dyes methacryloxyethyl
thiocarbamoyl rhodamine B (MRB) and Nile blue acrylamide (NBA) were
purchased from Polysciences, Inc., Hirschberg, Germany. N-Isopropylmethacrylamide was recrystallized from hexane; all other
chemicals were used as received without any further purification.
Ultrapure water (18.2 MΩ, arium 611 DI water purification system;
Sartorius AG, Göttingen, Germany) was used in all experiments.
Stimuli-Responsive Nanogel for Targeted Doxorubicin Delivery
(average Mn 2500), NIPAm, and NIPMAm were
obtained from Sigma-Aldrich. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was obtained
from Merck. Ammonium persulfate (APS) and BIS were obtained from Loba
Chemie. Doxorubicin hydrochloride (Adriamycin) was procured from Pfizer.
HeLa cells were obtained from the National Centre for Cell Sciences,
Pune, India. Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium (DMEM, high glucose),
Dulbecco’s phosphate-buffered saline, calcein AM, trypsin,
FBS, and MTT were procured from Thermo Fisher Scientific.
Synthesis and Characterization of Thermoresponsive Polymers
N-n-propylacrylamide (NNPAM) was synthesized via a Schotten–Baumann reaction published by Hirano et al. [21 ]. For this reaction, acryloylchloride (Sigma-Aldrich Chemie GmbH, Munich, Germany; purity 98%), n-propylamine (Fluka, Sigma-Aldrich Chemie GmbH, Munich, Germany; purity 99%), triethylamine (Grüssing GmbH Analytika, Filsum, Germany; purity 99%) and methylenchloride (p.a.) were used as received. The obtained monomer NNPAM was washed with NaHCO (10 wt %) and dried over MgSO . After filtration, the solvent was evaporated and the product was distilled in vacuum (115 C, 10 mbar).
Preparation of Fluorescent Polymer Nanoparticles
4-tert-butylcatechol as polymerization inhibitor,
Sigma-Aldrich), N-isopropylacrylamide (97%,
NIPAm, Sigma-Aldrich), and N-isopropylmethacrylamide
(97%, NIPMAm, Sigma-Aldrich). The inhibitor was removed with active
basic Al2O3 (for chromatography, VWR Chemicals).
Surfactants used were sodium dodecyl sulfate (99%, SDS, Duchefa) and
cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (99%, CTAB, Sigma-Aldrich). Dyes
used were pyrromethene 546 (PM546, Exciton) and pyrromethene 605 (PM605,
Exciton). Initiators used were potassium persulfate (99%, KPS, Sigma-Aldrich)
and 2,2-azobis(2-methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride (97%,
V50, Sigma-Aldrich). Cross-linker was N,N′-methylene-bis-acrylamide (99%, BIS, Sigma-Aldrich).
Synthesis of NIPAM-NIPMAM Hydrogels
Synthesis of Polymer Precursors NIPAM and NIPMAM
and NIPMAM (97%; Sigma-Aldrich Munich, Germany) were recrystallized
from n-hexane. Acryloylchloride (98%; Sigma-Aldrich
Munich, Germany), n-propylamine (99%, Fluka; Buchs,
Switzerland), triethylamine (99%; Grüssing, Filsum, Germany),
dichloromethane (p.A.), ammonium persulfate (≥98%; Sigma-Aldrich
Munich, Germany), N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide
(99%; Sigma-Aldrich Munich, Germany), SDS (≥99%; Sigma-Aldrich
Munich, Germany), and SDeS (≥99%; Sigma-Aldrich Munich, Germany)
were used without purification. Water was purified using an Arium
pro VF system (Satorius Stedim Systems GmbH, Göttingen, Germany).

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
