Applications of Polymers in Bioseparations and Delivery of Biomolecules

Polymers are widely applied in bioseparation processes as well as in drug delivery systems. These two fields have a certain commonality, in that they involve either removal or delivery of specific biomolecules from or to an aqueous environment It is also to be noted that therapeutic toxin renloval is an example of a bioseparation process. This presentation will focus on the use of polys!ors in physical as well as biospecific separations and delivery of biomolecules. Several new systems will also be described.
