Transformation of thebaine to oripavine, codeine, and morphine by rat liver, kidney, and brain microsomes.

abstract：:Targeted drug delivery critically depends on the binding selectivity of cargo-transporting colloidal particles. Extensive theoretical work has shown that two factors are necessary to achieve high selectivity for a threshold receptor density: multivalency and weak interactions. Here, we study a model system of DNA-coat...
