A simple method of shuttling proteins into cells via microscopic polymer beads shows promise as a general way of carrying vaccines or bits of DNA for gene therapy, according to chemists at the ...

PolyBatics Produces Novel Biobeads with Attached Proteins, Antibodies, and Ligands PolyBatics wants to improve the way that polymer beads, such as those used in home pregnancy kits, are manufactured.

Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) have brought a new level of control to atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), a reaction that is used to make specialty polymers for products such ...

(Phys.org) —The synthesis of peptides and proteins is an extremely complex matter, because they must be built up one amino acid at a time in repeated reaction and washing steps. Solid-phase synthesis ...

A new biomimetic approach to synthesising polymers will offer unprecedented control over the final polymer structure and yield advances in nanomedicine, researchers say. A new biomimetic approach to ...

Researchers have developed a new method of polymer synthesis based on two processes: “segregation” and “templating”. These processes have evolved naturally billions of years ago. Segregation is a ...
