  • SYNTHESIS AND APPLICATION OF A FAMILY OF NEW MATERIALS RESULTING FROM THE CHEMICAL CROSS-LINKING BETWEEN GELATINE AND ORGANIC SALTS
    Publication number: 20080319164
    Abstract: The Scheme (I) illustrates the synthesis mechanism of the new materials. This invention involves the combination of gelatine with organic salts in the solid or liquid state. For that purpose, gelatines of several origins (animal, microbial, vegetal) can be used. wherein X? represents the anion of the salt and Y? represents the cation of the salt. The invention relates also to the application of said synthesized new materials in the domains of physics, chemistry and biology, disclosing the process for the synthesis of the new materials and the use thereof as supports for biocatalysts immobilization in chemical reactions, controlled drug delivery, manufacturing of sensors/biosensors aimed at the detection of chemical species, manufacturing of conductive/semi-conductive materials, electrochemical (galvanic or electrolytic) cells or parts of cells.
