The present disclosure is directed to alcohol-based anti-adherent compositions that do not adhere to or attract Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria once it is applied to a surface and dried. The composition may include as anti-adherent agents, hydrophilic film-formers such as cellulosics, gums, acrylates, nonionic polymers, and anionic polymers. Examples of anti-adherent agents include Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, Cellulose gum, Acacia Senegal Gum; Polyacrylate Crosspolymer-11, VP/Dimethyl-aminoethylmethacrylate/Polycarbamyl Polyglycol Ester; Acrylates/Vinyl Neodecanoate Crosspolymer, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, Hydroxypropylcellulose, Methylcellulose, Propylene Glycol Alginate, Polyacrylate Crosspolymer-6, VP/Polycarbamyl Polyglycol Ester, Acrylates/Steareth-20 Methacrylate Copolymer; Acrylates Copolymer, and any combination thereof. The anti-adherent may be applied to surfaces using a vehicle such as a wipe.

A liquid composition comprises an organic diluent and at least one cellulose ether having anhydroglucose units joined by 1-4 linkages and having methyl groups, hydroxyalkyl groups, and optionally alkyl groups being different from methyl as substituents such that hydroxyl groups of anhydroglucose units are substituted with methyl groups such that s23/s26 is 0.29 or less, wherein s23 is the molar fraction of anhydroglucose units wherein only the two hydroxyl groups in the 2- and 3-positions of the anhydroglucose unit are substituted with a methyl group and wherein s26 is the molar fraction of anhydroglucose units wherein only the two hydroxyl groups in the 2- and 6-positions of the anhydroglucose unit are substituted with a methyl group. The liquid composition can be used for preparing a solid dispersion of an active ingredient in a cellulose ether.

There are provided efficient and cost-effective methods for purifying biomolecules in solution phase using stimuli-responsive protein-polymer conjugates. The protein-polymer conjugates comprise a target biomolecule-binding protein conjugated to a stimuli-responsive polymer and are reusable.

The present invention discloses a composition which uses bio-based, biodegradable film formers to provide a durable strippable coating. The coating includes a film former configured to form a continuous film on the substrate. The coating includes a solvent, wherein the solvent is configured to result an easy application of the substance on the substrate. The coating includes one or more additives. The one or more additives include a plasticizer to improve flexibility of the film. The one or more additives include a release agent configured to reduce adhesion of the coating on the substrate. The one or additives a thickener configured for adjusting a viscosity and of the coating.

This coating liquid contains: aerogel particles; a water-soluble polymer having a hydrophobic group; and a liquid medium.
