Counterion-Induced Swelling of Ionic Microgels
Alan R. Denton, Qiyun Tang
Ionic microgel particles, when dispersed in a solvent, swell to equilibrium sizes that are governed by a balance between electrostatic and elastic forces. Tuning of particle size b…

Ion Density Deviations in Semipermeable Ionic Microcapsules
Qiyun Tang, Alan R. Denton
By implementing the nonlinear Poisson-Boltzmann theory in a cell model, we theoretically investigate the influence of polyelectrolye gel permeability on ion densities and pH deviat…

Ion Density Deviations in Polyelectrolyte Microcapsules: Influence on Biosensors
Qiyun Tang, Alan R. Denton
Polyelectrolyte microcapsules loaded with fluorescent dyes have been proposed as biosensors to monitor local pH and ionic strength for diagnostic purposes. In the case of charged m…
