The present disclosure presents hydrogel compositions for use in the treatment of an ocular disorder (e.g., a retinal disease) and methods of treating an ocular disorder in a subject in need thereof with the hydrogel compositions. The hydrogel compositions can include hydroxyphenylpropionic acid (gelatin-HPA), hyaluronic acid-tyramine (HA-Tyr), a catalyzer (e.g., horseradish peroxidase (HRP)), a cell, a crosslinker (e.g., hydrogen peroxide), or any combination thereof. The methods include administering a therapeutically effective amount of a composition into an eye of the subject, wherein the composition includes any of the hydrogel compositions of the disclosure.

An etheramine mixture comprising one or more polyether diamines, methods for its production, and its use as a curing agent for epoxy resins. The etheramine mixture may also be used in the preparation of polyamides and polyurea compounds.

Embodiments of the disclosure provide an asymmetrically functionalized nanoparticle and a method for synthesizing the same. The asymmetrically functionalized nanoparticle includes a base nanoparticle. The base nanoparticle can include silicon dioxide. The base nanoparticle can have a lipophilic surface. A portion of the surface can be functionalized with a functionalizing material forming a hydrophilic portion. The functionalizing material can include polyethylenimine. A remaining portion of the surface is not functionalized forming a lipophilic portion. The asymmetrically functionalized nanoparticle is amphiphilic.

This composition for a hole collecting layer of an organic photoelectric conversion element contains: a charge-transporting substance comprising a polyaniline derivative represented by formula (1); a fluorine-based surfactant; and a solvent. The composition provides a thin film suitable for a hole collecting layer of an organic photoelectric conversion element, and is particularly suited for producing an inverse lamination type organic photoelectric conversion element. ##STR00001##
(In the formula, R.sup.1 to R.sup.6 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, etc., but one of R.sup.1 to R.sup.4 is a sulfonic acid group, one or more of the remaining R.sup.1 to R.sup.4 are a C1-20 alkoxy group, a C1-20 thioalkoxy group, a C1-20 alkyl group, a C2-20 alkenyl group, a C2-20 alkynyl group, a C1-20 haloalkyl group, a C6-20 aryl group, or a C7-20 aralkyl group, and m and n are numbers which satisfy 0≤m≤1, 0≤n≤1 and m+n=1).

Antibacterial coatings and methods of making the antibacterial coatings are described herein. A first branched polyethylenimine (BPEI) layer is formed and a first glyoxal layer is formed on a surface of the BPEI layer. The first BPEI layer and the first glyoxal layer are cured to form a crosslinked BPEI coating. The first BPEI layer can be modified with superhydrophobic moieties, superhydrophilic moieties, or negatively charged moieties to increase the antifouling characteristics of the coating. The first BPEI layer can be modified with contact-killing bactericidal moieties to increase the bactericidal characteristics of the coating.
