Abstract
Interferon has therapeutic potential for a wide range of infectious and proliferous disorders such as chronic hepatitis C. However, it has drawbacks such as relatively short serum half-life and rapid clearance like other therapeutic proteins. The attachment of a polyethylene glycol (PEG) moiety to interferon is considered as one of the most promising solutions for its ability to extend the plasma residence time.(omitted)
