CROSSLINKS POLYMERIC CHAINS
LIQUID PHASE
(a) Laser scanning confocal microscopy. Green regions are fluorescently stained self-assembled peptide, and black regions are water-filled pores and channels.(b) CryoTEM. Dark structures are selfassembled peptide scaffold, while lighter gray areas are composed of vitrified water.

FARMACO
Il moto del farmaco avviene nel fluido di rilascio che riempe i canali le cui pareti sono costituite dal polimero
MEZZO CONTINUO

IMPRINTED POLYMERIC GELS: CHARACTERISTICS
Binding affinity:a measure of how well the template molecule is attracted to the binding site
Selectivity :the ability to differentiate between the template and other molecules
Binding capacity :the maximum amount of template bound per mass or volume of polymer
