Objective(s) Physiological changes in the body may be utilized as potential triggers for controlled drug delivery. Based on these mechanisms, stimulus-responsive drug delivery has been developed. Materials and Methods In this study, a kind of poly (N-isopropylacrylamide-acrylamide) membrane was prepared by radical copolymerization. Changes in swelling ratios and diameters of the membrane wer...

The thermal decomposition of 86 % vinyl chloride 14 % vinyl acetate copolymer wasstudied by the conductometry technique in the presence of nitrogen. The kinetics of stability andthermal degradation of vinyl chloride- co- vinyl acetate (PVC- co- PVAc) copolymer withcopper, copper oxide and tricalcium dicitrate (st) were investigated at various temperatures (150-180 oC ) in solution. The rate coe...

Water-insoluble enzyme derivatives possessing specific catalytic activity may provide a useful tool in biochemical studies, since they can readily be removed from the reaction mixture and can be used for the preparation of columns with enzymatic activity. The conversion of several enzymes into the corresponding water-insoluble derivatives by their binding via covalent bonds to insoluble carrier...
