Polymer brushes functionalized with cyclodextrin host and arylazopyrazole guest monomers provide strong surface adhesion that is water resistent but can be deactivated by UV irradiation.

<div>Fungal adhesion is fundamental to processes ranging from</div><div>infection to food production yet, robust, population-scale</div><div>quantification methods for yeast surface adhesion are lacking. We developed a microfluidic assay to distinguish the effects of genetic background and solution conditions on adhesion. This approach will enable the rapid screening of yeast adhesive properties for anti-fouling surfaces and a host of other applications.</div>

The spectroscopic and photochemical properties of polyurethane coumarin (PUC) in dimethyl sulf-oxide (DMSO), thetra hydro furan (THF), dimethyl formamide (DMF) and film state were investigated at room temperature under one photon excitation. The results show that under irradiation of l ] 310 nm photodimerization process are increased and under UV irradiation with l[ 260 nm, photocleavage of polymer have been evidenced, too.

The influence of some factors on spironolactone stability in solution was studied, by applying high-performance liquid chromatography, as a part of a pharmaceutical preformulation study in order to obtain a spironolactone solution for alopecia treatment. Solutions of 1 mg/ml spironolactone in aqueous ethanolic solution 1 : 1 and in 20 mM cyclodextrines solutions (b-, hydroxi-b- and methyl-b-cyclodextrine) was used, maintained at 8 and 22 �C, protected from light and after UV irradiation at 254 nm. The main degradation products were 7a-thiospirolactone and canrenone. The most stable solutions were the alcoholic ones and with methyl-beta-cyclodextrine, but the simultaneous action of temperature and UV irradiation allowed degradation processes after one hour of exposure, more aggressive in the presence of methyl-beta-cyclodextrine. In conclusion, for alopecia treatment with spironolactone a 1 mg/mL ethanolic solution could be used and it is recommendable the protection of treated zone.
