An amphiphilic dendrimer-like diblock copolymer, PEEGE-G2-b-PEO（OH）12, constituted of a hydrophobic poly（ethoxyethyl glycidol ether） inner core and a hydrophilic poly（ethylene oxide） outer layer, has been successfully synthesized by the living anionic ring-opening polymerization method. The intermediates and targeted products were charac-terized with 1H NMR spectroscopy and gel permeation chromatography. The application on drug delivery of dendrimer-like diblock copolymer PEEGE-G2-b-PEO（OH）12 using DOX as a model drug was also studied. The drug loading content and encapsulation e ciency were found at 13.07% and 45.75%, respectively. In vitro release experiment results indicated that the drug-loaded micelles exhibited a sustained release behavior under acidic media.展开更多

Ring opening polymerization （ROP） of ε-caprolactone （CL） and tetrahydrofuran （THF） was carried out under inert atmosphere by using L-cysteine as a bridging agent in the presence of stannous octoate （SO） as a catalyst. The nano silver end capped diblock copolymer was synthesized by in situ method. Thus obtained nano silver end capped L-cysteine bridged diblock copolymer was characterized by various analytical methods like Fourier transform infrared （FTIR） spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance （NMR） spectroscopy, circular dichroism （CD）, fluorescence spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatography （GPC）, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS）, thermogravimetric analysis （TGA）, differential scanning calorimetry （DSC）, field emission scanning electron microscopy （FESEM）, high resolution transmission electron microscopy （HRTEM） and zeta potential. The antimicrobial property of the nano silver end capped diblock copolymer against e-coli was tested.展开更多
