The relaxivity r1 of the branched PEG-Gds were higher than that of linear PEG-Gd, dendron PEG-Gd, and commercially available contrast agents.
The luminance of linear (0.7), dendron (0.7), and four-arm (2.0) is 40, 80, and 60, respectively, which is lower than the commercially available contrast agents.

A new family of liquid crystalline columnar polyethers was obtained by modification of P(ECH-co-EO) with the dendron 3,4,5-tris[4-(n-dodecan-1-yloxy)benzyloxy]ben-zoate.
The introduction of dendrons into the P(ECH-co-E0) is expected to greatly modify the hydrodynamic volume of the system.

In Axon Dendron Tree, Kelly's network of correspondences suggested a profound interplay between images and physical structures; by surrendering the notion of an abstract, authorial self, the poet could immerse himself fully in the Heraclitean flux and - in Kelly's gnosis - become the embodiment of cosmic process.
Rather than the repetition of phonemes - and their subsequent branching - of Axon Dendron Tree, Kelly indulges in the compounding of narratives that merge with one another, separate, veer off in multiple directions to engage with other narratives.
