Degradable Materials
This book addresses the fields of biodegradation, environmental degradation, and photochemical degradation. The purpose of the book is to establish guidelines for terminology, nomenclature, characterization techniques and methodology, mechanisms of degradation, standard reference materials, and issues and needs. This is the first scientific book of this nature based on the findings of the world's leading scientists (academic, industrial, and federal) in this field. Hard data is presented and soft data is identified under issues and needs. New areas covered are such topics as: biodegradation with in vivo applications, environmental degradation, including anaerobic, aerobic, characterization techniques and methodology, photochemical degradation, and secondary issues associated with degradation. This publication contains information vital to environmental scientists and engineers, biomaterials scientists, pharmaceutical technologists, and chemists.
Macromolecular Symposia, No. 199
The international symposium “POLYCONDENSATION 2002” (15-18 September, in Hamburg, Germany) was the 4th meeting of a series launched in Paris 1996. This symposium covered topics such as: New theories New synthetic methods Block copolymers Hyperbranched polymers Liquid crystalline polymers Properties and application This book contains (oral) contributions of the symposium.
Functionalized Polymers
Functionalized polymers are macromolecules to which chemically bound functional groups are attached which can be used as catalysts, reagents, protective groups, etc. Functionalized polymers have low cost, ease of processing and attractive features for functional organic molecules. Chemical reactions for the introduction of functional groups in polymers and the conversion of functional groups in polymers depend on different properties. Such properties are of great importance for functionalization reactions for possible applications of reactive polymers. This book deals with the synthesis and design of various functional polymers, the modification of preformed polymer backbones and their various applications.
Drug Design
Drug Design, Volume X covers promising and current developments in drug design. The book discusses procedures as applied in the practice of drug design; the structural aspects of the structure-activity relationships of neuroleptics; and promising perspectives in the highly actual field of bioactive peptides. The text also describes the application of the dynamic systems analysis to the antihypertensive drug action; polymeric drug delivery systems; and the design of biocompatible polymers. The structure-activity relationships of insect repellents as a basis for the design of such agents, as well as the approaches to the multivariate data analysis in structure-activity relationships, which is an essential aspect of drug design, are also encompassed. Chemists, pharmacologists, bioengineers, and people involved in drug design and manufacture will find the book invaluable.
Polymer Products and Waste Management
Analyzing the future strategies for polymer waste management, this volume addresses the chemical/technical problems as well as the societal aspects of this area.

Advances in Drug Delivery Systems, 4
This symposium provided a setting in which scientists could gather to discuss recent advances and state-of-the-art technology in drug delivery. Speakers included pharmaceutical scientists, polymer chemists, bioengineers, pharmacologists and physicians who were considered to be leaders in the field of research and development of drug delivery systems. Perspectives on drug delivery systems and development have changed markedly since the first symposium on this subject was held. Focus on biological mechanisms and interactions important to drug delivery systems has increased. This changing emphasis is reflected in the five major topics discussed: transport mechanisms across membranes, proteins and macromolecular drug delivery, new developments in drug delivery, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in controlled drug delivery, and targeting and site-specific delivery. The breadth of topics covered illustrates the interdisciplinary and multifaceted nature of drug delivery systems.
