Systems and processes for performing solid phase peptide synthesis are generally described. Solid phase peptide synthesis is a known process in which amino acid residues are added to peptides that have been immobilized on a solid support. In certain embodiments, the inventive systems and methods can be used to perform solid phase peptide synthesis quickly while maintaining high yields. Certain embodiments relate to processes and systems that may be used to heat, transport, and/or mix reagents in ways that reduce the amount of time required to perform solid phase peptide synthesis.

An amorphous polyester or copolyester composition comprises the reaction product of a crystalline or semicrystalline polyester or copolyester, optionally derived from a recycled waste stream, at least one diol or aromatic diacid or an ester of a diacid or a hydroxycarboxylic acid or a lactone or a dianhydride, and a catalyst, wherein the amorphous composition has a weight average molecular weight of at least 10,000 g/mol (polystyrene equivalent molecular weight) as measured by gel permeation chromatography.

Pressure control in fluidic systems is generally described. In some cases, a system comprises a fluid-permeable (e.g., liquid-permeable) medium and a pressure regulator. The medium and the pressure regulator can be positioned between a first fluidic channel and a second fluidic channel. The medium is arranged, in certain cases, such that fluid (e.g., liquid) can be transported from the first fluidic channel, through the medium, and into the second fluidic channel. In certain cases, when a first pressure within the first fluidic channel is below a sum of the permeability pressure differential of the medium with respect to the fluid and a second pressure within the second fluidic channel, the fluid is substantially prevented from being transported through an outlet of the first fluidic channel.
