Abstract
The properties of individual types of magnetic particles were improved by c ombining different polymer matrix materials. The hybrids of magnetic polysa ccharide-polystyrene, silica-polystyrene, silica-polysaccharide, polysaccha ride-poly(alkylcyanoacrylate) and polysaccharide-poly(lactic acid) particle s are discussed and characterized by electrokinetic measurements and studie s of their protein binding capacity. The improved properties of these magne tic particles lead to novel applications in diagnostics, molecular biology and biomedicine. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
