Abstract

A Short note on Polymer and Macromolecular Studies

Author(s): Marry Higaki

The combination of polymeric with biological materials, to create biohybrid macromolecules that merge the properties of both the natural and synthetic components, is a flourishing area in both life sciences and biotechnology. The click chemistry philosophy has recently provided a powerful tool in this direction, leading to a plethora of novel, tailor-made bio macromolecules with unprecedented structural characteristics and properties.
