Abstract: N-(2-Hydroxypropyl)methacrylamide (HPMA) is a water soluble monomer used in the synthesis of biocompatible and non-immunogenic polymers. In particular, poly(HPMA) can be exploited to sterically stabilize nanoparticles (NPs) suitable for the delivery of lipophilic therapeutics without… read more here.
