Journal ArticleDOI

A Closer Look at the Impact of Molecular Imprinting on Adsorption Capacity and Selectivity for Protein Templates

TL;DR: Analysis of the solvent accessible surface area of ly sozyme and its high-isoelectric point competitors revealed why lysozyme is an exceptional binder to the polymer system used in this work, with or without imprinting.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular simulations of recognitive behavior of molecularly imprinted intelligent polymeric networks

TL;DR: In this article, a method simulating the formation of densely cross-linked polymeric networks was developed that incorporates both intramolecular as well as intermolecular interactions and the subsequent effects they have on the end network structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is there a future in glucose-sensitive, responsive insulin delivery systems?

TL;DR: It is concluded that there are significant problems that must be solved for an adequate development of a device for treatment of diabetics and hydrogel-based insulin delivery systems may be able to achieve the desirable steady state and dynamic nature of insulin release.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bioadhesive analysis of controlled-release systems. II: Time-dependent bioadhesive stress in poly(acrylic acid)-containing systems

TL;DR: In this article, the dynamic behavior of the bioadhesive strength is analyzed for novel controlled release systems containing poly (acrylic acid) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Poly (Ethylene Glycol) Molecular Weight and Microparticle Size on Oral Insulin Delivery from P(MAA-g-EG) Microparticles

TL;DR: The swelling properties of polymer disks vs. crushed particles were investigated via equilibrium swelling experiments in this study and different PEG chain length and particle size in their loading and release behavior was compared.
