  • Block copolymer blends
    Patent number: 9295760
    Abstract: A method of producing a structure having a polymer surface with a plurality of surface domains, the surface being formed by the steps of: forming a liquid composition comprising at least one surface polymer, at least one block copolymer and at least one common solvent, the at least one block copolymer having the general formulae A-B-C, wherein A is a polymer which is the same as the surface polymer or fully miscible or partially immiscible with the surface polymer; B is a polymer which is more immiscible in the surface polymer than polymer A; and C is a terminal group; and solidifying the liquid composition to form the structure having the surface with the plurality of surface domains.
    Type: Grant

  • Targets for Growth Factor Signalling and Methods of Therapy
    Publication number: 20120058120
    Abstract: Methods of screening or designing therapeutic agents effective for the treatment of a transglutaminase-associated disease, disorder and/or condition are provided which include determining whether a candidate agent can modulate an interaction between a transglutaminase and an insulin-like growth factor and/or a member of the IGF family of receptors. Also provided are pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treatment using said pharmaceutical compositions.

  • SCAFFOLD TREATMENT - DEVICE AND METHOD
    Publication number: 20100015321
    Abstract: An apparatus for treating porous polymeric scaffolds including an enclosure; a support for at least one porous polymeric scaffold, and at least one application outlets within the enclosure for applying a liquid agent onto the top surface of the at least one porous polymeric scaffold; each porous polymeric scaffold being supported on a drained platform above a liquid catchment area within the enclosure and having at least one application outlet directed at its top surface
