A range of hydrogels was prepared by the copolymerisation of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) with various cyclic monomers (CM) derived fromcis- and trans-1,2-dihydroxycyclohexa-3,5-diene (DHCD). The specific systems investigated were the cis-diace

Biodegradable polyesters such as poly(lactic acid) were synthesised by ring opening polymerization of anhydrosulfites. Considerable success has been achieved with the use of anionic initiators. High molecular weight polymer, Mn ∼37 700 has been syn

The apparent biodegradability and biocompatibility of the microbially produced polyester, poly(β-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB), has been the focus of much research by a number of authors with regard to its potential for use in packaging and medical implant

Polymer membranes are used in a wide variety of molecular sensing devices many of which are of potential clinical interest. The role of the polymer and the physical properties required of it are, however, rarely clearly defined. An extensive review i

The physical and degradative properties of polyhydroxybutyrate-hydroxyvalerate copolymer blends with polycaprolactone were investigated. Blends containing low levels of polycaprolactone (less than 20%) were found to possess a considerable degree of c

Hydrogels, particularly the tough, low water content materials, have potential advantages in the field of clinical biosensors because of their established use as medical polymers. The factors that control transport behaviour in these polymers are dis

The potential of hydrogel copolymer membranes in clinical sensors, based on fibre optics, is addressed. The particular properties of the membranes of relevance in this application are the ease of refractive index modulation and the potential of the h

The effects of melt processing on those properties of polyhydroxybutyrate-hydroxyvalerate copolymers that control hydrolytic stability were studied. Initial experiments using a non-thermal preparation technique enabled the relationship between initia
