TECHNOLOGY LICENSING OPPORTUNITY: Peptoid-Based Chelating Ligands for Selective Metal Chelation

exibility with strong binding performance, which creates a practical path for applications where existing chelators fall short, including difficult metal removal in biological, environmental and separation settings. How it Works Peptoid-Based Chelating Ligands uses cyclic peptoid scaffolds, which ar

e peptoid chains closed into ring structures and decorated with side chains chosen for metal binding. By changing the ring size, side-chain chemistry and spacing between binding groups, the ligand can be adjusted to favor certain hard metal
