The use and importance of polymers for biologically relevant applications is currently one of the most rapidly growing sciences. The Journal of Bioactive and Compatible Polymers provides polymer scientists and researchers throughout the world with current frontier research advances in the field.
Coverage includes advances in the following biomedical areas:
Polymeric scaffolds for tissue engineering and tissue regeneration
Polymeric drugs and prodrug systems • Polymer drug delivery and targeted delivery systems • Polymeric biosensors and stimuli-sensitive biosystems
Polymeric assembly systems and biodegradable polymers for bioapplications
Modeling and modification of enzyme-sensitive polymer systems
Biorelated polymers with unique properties and bioapplications
