摘要:
The present invention provides a block polymer which has functional groups on its both ends, and which comprises hydrophilic/hydrophobic segments. As for the functional groups on its both ends, the block polymer has amino group, carboxyl group or mercapto group on .alpha.-terminal, and hydroxyl group, carboxyl group, aldehyde group or vinyl group on .omega.-terminal. Hydrophilic segment comprises polyethylene oxide, while hydrophobic segment is derived from lactide, lactone or (meth)acrylic acid ester. The block polymer of this invention forms a polymeric micelle which is usable as bio-compatible materials.
摘要:
The present invention relates to drug carriers composed of a block copolymer having hydrophilic and hydrophobic segments, a polymeric micelle type drug comprising hydrophobic drugs trapped by physical treatments in said drug carrier and methods for trapping hydrophobic drugs in the drug carrier. The drugs carrier composed of the block copolymer according to the invention forms a stable polymeric micelle structure with which hydrophobic drugs can be incorporated very efficiently via physical trapping. It was found that the incorporated drug is stably maintained in micelles even in the presence of serum. In addition, a drug difficult to administer into the living body owing to sparing water-solubility for its high hydrophobicity can be administered in the form of polymeric micelle drug.

Disclosed is a bed material whereby cultured or grown cells are collected or detached from the material without a proteolysis enzyme or chemical material. The bed material comprises a support and a coating thereon, wherein the coating is formed from a polymer or copolymer which has a critical solution temperature to water within the range of 0.degree. C. to 80.degree. C.
摘要:
A substrate surface on which either a substance to detect analyte or an analyte per se is immobilized, which surface is formed by a treatment of substrate surface with a liquid which contains uncrosslinked polymer based on polyethylene glycol chain segment, said treatment conducted either simultaneously with the immobilization of said substance or analyte or after said substance or analyte has been immobilized on said surface. The non-specific adsorption of impurity protein or the like which is co-existent in sample for assay is significantly restrained.

The invention provides approximately monodispersible random copolymers obtained from monomeric mixtures of 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline with 2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline, production method thereof and 2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline homopolymer obtained by using special initiator. Such polymers exhibit temperature-responsiveness in an aqueous solution within a broad temperature range, and are useful materials in the technical fields of surface chemistry and biomaterials.
摘要:
Parenchymal cells are cultivated on cultivated endothelial cells or cultivated fibroblasts which have been separated by a surface of a specific hydrophilic polymer, and which have been patterned. A culture which contains thus formed patterned spheroids of cultivated parenchymal cells is thereby provided by this invention. This culture maintains a function which is specific to the parenchymal cells over a long period of time.
摘要:
A display device able to raise a light resistance of pixel transistors without depending upon a light shielding structure and a method of production of same, wherein an average crystal grain size of a polycrystalline silicon film 111 forming an active layer of the pixel transistors is controlled to be relatively small so as to suppress a photo-leakage current. The smaller the crystal grain size, the larger the included crystal defects. Carriers excited by light irradiation are smoothly captured by a defect level, and an increase of a photo-leakage current is suppressed. On the other hand, the average crystal grain size of the polycrystalline silicon film 111 constituting the peripheral transistors is controlled so as to become relatively large. The larger the crystal grain size, the larger the mobility of the carriers, and the higher the drivability of the peripheral transistors. This is because a higher speed operation is required for the peripheral transistors than the pixel transistors due to scanning of pixels and sampling of image signals.
