Abstract
Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) is a biocompatible and hemocompatible polymer that has found wide application in many fields, including in the production of toothpastes. Having some structural features similar to those of proteins, it has great potential for use in the medical field. PVP is not a biodegradable polymer, which is why its widespread use inevitably leads to the question of how the different molecular weight of the polymer, which depends on the synthesis conditions and molar mass, affects the environment. Phytotoxicity assessment can be used to systematically assess potential toxic reactions.
期刊介绍:
Nanobiotechnology Reports publishes interdisciplinary research articles on fundamental aspects of the structure and properties of nanoscale objects and nanomaterials, polymeric and bioorganic molecules, and supramolecular and biohybrid complexes, as well as articles that discuss technologies for their preparation and processing, and practical implementation of products, devices, and nature-like systems based on them. The journal publishes original articles and reviews that meet the highest scientific quality standards in the following areas of science and technology studies: self-organizing structures and nanoassemblies; nanostructures, including nanotubes; functional and structural nanomaterials; polymeric, bioorganic, and hybrid nanomaterials; devices and products based on nanomaterials and nanotechnology; nanobiology and genetics, and omics technologies; nanobiomedicine and nanopharmaceutics; nanoelectronics and neuromorphic computing systems; neurocognitive systems and technologies; nanophotonics; natural science methods in a study of cultural heritage items; metrology, standardization, and monitoring in nanotechnology.
