24. The term 'coat' refers to an outer layer of PEG without any consideration of the conformation of the polymer chains forming the layer, of whether the chains lie flat on the surface or extend out in the surrounding medium or of whether the polymer chains are adsorbed onto the solid surface or chemically bound to it. However, when addressing particles with a particular type of coating, this will be indicated explicitly in the text.
