Merrifield resin is a type of polymer resin commonly used as a solid support in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). It was developed by the chemist Robert Merrifield, who won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1984 for his work on this method. The resin is typically made from polystyrene or a polystyrene-divinylbenzene copolymer and is functionalized with an appropriate linker that allows for the attachment of the growing peptide chain.
