Bioreducible?
The section below was removed for discussion because it is entirely primary lab research, and highly speculative, i.e., not encyclopedic per WP:PRIMARY. --Zefr (talk) 21:47, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Bioreducible properties of thiolated polymers were first shown by Kataoka and co-workers and in the following confirmed by numerous research groups such as by Lin et al. or Schmitz et al. . Due to these properties a targeted drug release under reducing conditions such as in the cytosol can be achieved
