Carrier organic-synthetic polymer

CD immobilization which uses organic synthetic polymer as carrier is a novel technology and relevant reports appeared until the 1970s. This kind of carrier... 

Enzymes can be immobilized by matrix entrapment, by microencapsulation, by physical or ionic adsorption, by covalent binding to organic or inorganic polymer-carriers, or by whole cell immobilization (5 ). Particularly impressive is the great number of chemical reactions developed for the covalent binding of enzymes to inorganic carriers such as glass, to natural polymers such as cellulose or Sepharose, and to synthetic polymers such as nylon, polyacrylamide, and other vinyl polymers and... 

Recently, a miniaturized thermal apparatus, [t-ThFFF, was developed and applied to characterize the molar mass distribution of synthetic polymers in organic solvent as well to determine the particle size distribution of nanoparticles (PSs latex) in aqueous carrier. This 4-ThFFF proved to performed well in both macromolecule and particle analysis [48]. 

Biopolymers represent an interesting alternative to synthetic polymers in order to be used in the route of structured carriers for controlled release and encapsulation applications. In particular, the ability of these carriers to entrap both hydrophilic and hydrophobic drugs may be very promising for many applications. In addition, the absence of chemical compounds and organic solvents used to produce biopolymeric matrices could be very interesting for some industrial applications.

The structure of cationic lipids and polymers is readily amenable to chemical modification [35, 36] allowing the exploration of a virtually unlimited number of combinations and strategies at the mercy of chemists creative abilities. Various reviews have been focused on cationic lipids, dendrimers and polymers in terms of their chemical structures and their transfection properties [36—41], in an attempt to shed some light on the chemical requirements necessary to mediate gene delivery. The focus of this chapter will be to explore these carriers from a synthetic perspective, with a description of the chemical strategies used for the preparation via synthetic organic chemistry (excluding polymer synthesis) of cationic lipids and dendrimers. 

The first step in the chemical synthesis is to investigate the scope and limitations of the synthetic reactions [32, 40], since different clusters of compounds, or even compounds within a cluster, may require different experimental settings. Even with automated solid state syntheses using polymer beads as carriers of compounds, the synthetic steps need to be optimised so that reasonable yields are obtained for all compounds in the library. Otherwise unbalanced test data will result, with subsequent loss of information. Such optimisation is easy to accomplish with few compounds. Recently, robots that optimise organic syntheses on the basis of statistical...
