Polymers and Biopolymers in Field of Medicines

A polymer is a large molecule of many repeated units. Polymers range from synthetic plastics such as polystyrene to natural biopolymers such as DNA and proteins. Polymers and biopolymers are also used in field of medicines and such type of polymers are bio-safe, non-toxic and environmentally friendly. Biopolymers are the polymeric materials which is used to interact with tissues, bones, teeth and other living substances and thereafter environmentally friendly, that are degradable polymers which are also used in efficient drugs such as insulin. Thus, their effective response had led a wide range to make it successful in field of medicines.
