Title: Amphiphilic core-shell latexes
Usefulness: Amphiphilic core-shell latexes
Summary: Used in biotechnology, water-boron coatings, as carriers for targeted drug delivery into specific tissue sites, in diagnostic tests for the detection of antibodies in various body fluids (e.g. blood serum and urine), in agglutination tests especially for immobilizing antibodies through the amino groups of the antibody, as delivery systems for gene therapy, in waste water treatment for adsorption and desorption of heavy metal ions and acid and basic dyes, in leather finishing, paints, paper and textile industries, bioadhesives, enzyme-based catalysts, and in bioseparations of target proteins via bonding to the particle surface, as drug reservoirs in controlled release formulations, and composite materials.
