Journal of Bioactive and Compatible Polymers

Biomedical Applications

eISSN: 15308030 | ISSN: 08839115 | Current volume: 39 | Current issue: 5 Frequency: Bi-monthly

The use and importance of biomedical polymers, especially in pharmacology, is growing rapidly. The Journal of Bioactive and Compatible Polymers is a fully peer-reviewed scholarly journal that provides biomedical polymer scientists and researchers with new information on important advances in this field.

Examples of specific areas of interest to the journal include: polymeric drugs and drug design; polymeric functionalization and structures related to biological activity or compatibility; natural polymer modification to achieve specific biological activity or compatibility; enzyme modelling by polymers; membranes for biological use; liposome stabilization and cell modeling. This journal is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE).

All issues of the Journal of Bioactive and Compatible Polymers are available to browse online.

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
