Biosensing and drug delivery by polypyrrole.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Conducting polypyrrole is a biological compatible polymer matrix wherein number of drugs and enzymes can be incorporated by way of doping. The polypyrrole, which is obtained as freestanding film by electrochemical polymerization, has gained tremendous recognition as sophisticated electronic measuring device in the field of sensors and drug delivery. In drug delivery the reversing of the potential 100% of the drug can be released and is highly efficient as a biosensor in presence of an enzyme. In this review we discuss the applications of conducting polypyrrole as biosensor for some biomolecules and drug delivery systems.

متن کاملPolypyrrole nanoprobes with low non-specific protein adsorption for intracellular mRNA detection and photothermal therapy.
In this work, we discovered that polypyrrole nanoparticles (PPy NPs) displayed a low non-specific protein adsorption. We herein present the first PPy NP-based biosensing platform for intracellular mRNA detection in living cells. We also demonstrate that PPy NPs exhibit high NIR absorbance and can be utilized for cancer photothermal therapy.
متن کاملElectrochemically controlled release of dexamethasone from conducting polymer polypyrrole coated electrode.
Chronic recordings from micromachined neural electrode arrays often fail a few weeks after implantation primarily due to the formation of an astro-glial sheath around the implant. We propose a drug delivery system, from conducting polymer (CP) coatings on the electrode sites, to modulate the inflammatory implant-host tissue reaction. In this study, polypyrrole (PPy) based coatings for electrica...

METHOD To create electrically conductive hydrogels, we fabricated composite hyd...
متن کاملBioaffinity sensing using biologically functionalized conducting-polymer nanowire.
A simple, one-step method for fabricating single biologically functionalized conducting-polymer (polypyrrole) nanowire on prepatterned electrodes and its application to biosensing was demonstrated. The biologically functionalized polypyrrole was formed by the electropolymerization of an aqueous solution of pyrrole monomer and the model biomolecule, avidin- or streptavidin-conjugated ZnSe/CdSe q...
