Abstract

A combination of magnetic and temperature-responsive properties in the same polymer composites is expected to increase their potential applications in the biomedical field. Accordingly, micron-sized magnetite/polystyrene/ poly(2-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate-ethyleneglycol dimethacrylate), which are abbreviated as Fe3O4/PS/P (DM-EGDM) composite polymer particles, were prepared by the seeded copolymerization of DM and EGDM in the presence of magnetite/polystyrene (Fe3O4/PS) particles. Fe3O4/PS/P(DM-EGDM) composite particles with magnetic properties showed a temperature-sensitive phase transition at approximately 31 °C. The adsorption behavior of the low molecular weight emulsifiers and trypsin (TR) as biomolecules were examined on Fe3O4/PS/P(DM-EGDM) composite polymer particles at different temperatures. The native conformation of TR was followed by measuring the specific activity under various adsorption conditions. The activity of the adsorbed TR on composite polymer particles was higher than those of the free TR and TR adsorbed on Fe3O4/PS particles.
