Figure 8.9 Towards social autopoiesis the cyclic logic of autopoiesis applied to social systems. Notice the analogy with Figure 8.2. The transfer from biology to social science assumes that human relationships substitute for the chemical interactions among the cell constituents and that the definition rules of the social community substitute for the membrane boundary.

The use of polymers for the immobilization of enzymes and other bio-logically-active molecules has been discussed. The advantages of polymeric support materials and rules for their selection according to the type of use have been discussed. A review of various types of polymers which can serve as support matrices has been given. They are, e.g., polymeric carbohydrate derivatives, poly(allyl carbonate) and poly(allyl alcohol), polymers of acrylamidosalicylic acids, polyacrylamide derivatives, etc. Some examples of the use of immobilized enzymes and other biologically-active molecules were mentioned. 

However, more difficult than novelty is a unified, clear, and objective assessment of the inventive step. The original idea was, that not every new but logically deducible obvious modification of the state of the art, which would occur to the skilled person as a simple further development of his or her daily routine worlt, should be protected automatically pursuant to its mere novelty. The third and last requirement, industrial applicability, does as a rule not raise any problem when assessing the patentability of biologically active compounds.
