Functional Group Distributions in Carboxylic Acid Containing Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) Microgels
Abstract
Control of the functional group distribution is of fundamental importance in the design of functional polymer particles, particularly in biological applications. Surface-functionalized particles are useful for bioconjugation and medical diagnostics, while internally functionalized particles may have applications in drug delivery. We have prepared a series oftemperature-sensitive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM)-based microgels containing …
