A new male method of contraception by injecting a polymer, styrene-maleic anhydride (SMA), into the lumen of the vas deferens has been studied on rhesus monkeys. The polymer has the dual feature that it can occlude the vas deferens lumen

One-third of eukaryotic proteins are integrated within membranes, as are the targets of 40% of approved drugs. However, the lack of a general means of solubilizing, stabilizing and structurally characterizing active membrane proteins has frustrated efforts to understand their mechanisms
Biochemical and biophysical research communications, 255(1), 75-79 (1999-03-20)
A comb-shaped polymeric modifier, SMA [poly(styrene comaleic anhydride)], which binds to plasma albumin in blood was used to modify the synthetic cell-adhesive laminin peptide YIGSR, and its inhibitory effect on experimental lung metastasis of B16-BL6 melanoma cells was examined. YIGSR
A fluorescent, magnetic composite poly(styrene-maleic anhydride) microsphere, suitable for conjugation with polysaccharide, was synthesized using magnetite/europium phthalate particles as seeds by copolymerization of styrene and maleic anhydride. The magnetite/europium phthalate particles were wrapped up by poly(ethylene glycol), which improved the

Polymer styrene maleic anhydride dissolved in dimethyl sulphoxide was injected intravasally to rhesus monkeys at the dose levels of 100 mg, 250 mg, and 500 mg in each vas deferens in low, high, and highest dose groups respectively, while control
