	Is it possible to attach a tripeptide amino acid chain to expanded
PTFE (polytetraflouroethylene aka Teflon)?  This would have a great
application in a device we are desgining for implantation into the body. 
Is it possible that the same techniques used to attach peptides to beads
in solid state peptide synthesis might work here too?  I'm perplexed about
where to go for information.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!  You
might save some people's vision if we can get this to work! 

	Thank you very much,
	Jason Comander
