9780854041206: Faraday Discussions No. 139: Importance of Polymer Science for Biological Systems

Synopsis

This new title looks at topics surrounding the concept of the physical chemistry of macromolecules as common ground between biology and polymer science (exploring the analogy between the fundamental motif of cells and polymeric amphiphiles) and also at the problems associated with biocompatibility and biodegradability of polymers, with regard to their role as therapeutic delivery vehicles. There is increasing dialogue between the different communities of polymer scientists and biologists/clinicians, reflecting the importance of bringing together interdisciplinary ideas.
