In recent years, employees of the Department of Organic Chemistry, the Institute of Chemistry and Chemical Technologies, Lviv Polytechnic, have devoted a lot of time to the development of smart polymer systems for the use in biomedical research, in particular, the creation of smart systems for controlled orientation of proteins, tissue engineering, and biomedical sensors.
Their works were published in the leading scientific journals. First of all, it is the article Temperature- and pH-Responsive Schizophrenic Copolymer Brush Coatings with Enhanced Temperature Response in Pure Water, which was published in ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces in 2023. In 2022, Chemical Engineering Journal published the article Passive Antifouling and Active Self-Disinfecting Antiviral Surfaces and the Polymers Journal published the article Temperature-Responsive Polymer Brush Coatings for Advanced Biomedical Applications.
