Chemistry and Technology of Water-Soluble Polymers

Chemistry and Technology of Water-Soluble Polymers edited by C.A. Finch.

To the biochemist, water is, of course, the only solvent worthy of consideration, because natural macromolecules exhibit their remarkable conformational properties only in aqueous media. Probably because of these remarkable properties, biochemists do not tend to regard proteins, nucleotides and poly...
