Immobilization of poly(ɛ-caprolactone)–poly(ethylene oxide)–poly(ɛ-caprolactone) triblock copolymer on poly(lactide-co-glycolide) surface and dual biofunctional effects

Anti‐thrombogenicity of styrene‐butadiene‐styrene triblock copolymer grafted with poly(ethylene glycol)s

“…Since the amount of grafted PEG is very small, as described above, this result supports the hypothesis that the dense PEG grafting is important to the volume restriction effect. 37 Figure 12 shows quantitative amount of coagulated components by using a Bio-Rad's detergent compatible protein assay. It is clear that the amount of the coagulated blood component decreases on the PEG-grafted SBS cast films and the PEG-grafted melt-molded SBS film in comparison with hydrocarboxyl SBS cast film.…”

Preparation of poly(l-lactide) and its application in bioelectrochemistry

“…Among the biodegradable polymers, PLA was a very important biomedical material due to the perfect combination of its bioresorbable, biocompatible, biodegradable and mechanical properties and has been intensively investigated in numerous medical and pharmaceutical applications [20][21][22][23][24]. Generally, PLA can be prepared by direct polycondensation of lactic acid or by ring-opening polymerization of lactides.…”

Application of poly(ethylene glycol)– distearoylphosphatidylethanolamine (PEG-DSPE) block copolymers and their derivatives as nanomaterials in drug delivery

“…77,78 Strategies have been developed to overcome these difficulties by coating the surface of the liposomes with hydrophilic polymers or a glycolipid, such as PEG or monosialoganglioside (GMI). 79,80 PEG possesses high flexibility, favorable hydrophilicity, antiphagocytosis against macrophages, resistance to immunological recognition, noncombination with proteins, and biocompatibility, [81][82][83][84] which enable the extensive application in developing the PEGylated liposomes for delivering various drugs. PEGylated liposomes have attracted considerable attention as the passive targeting administration carriers for the therapy of cancer and infectious diseases.…”
