Poly(methyl vinyl ether-alt-maleic acid) Polymers for Cell Encapsulation
Abstract
Polyanions based on poly(methyl vinyl ether-alt-maleic acid) were investigated as materials for cell encapsulation. These water-soluble polyanions having molecular masses ranging from 20 to 1980 kDa were prepared by functionalization of poly(methyl vinyl ether-alt-maleic anhydride) with 5-aminofluorescein and/or α-methoxy-ω-amino-poly(ethylene glycol), followed by base hydrolysis of the residual anhydride groups to form the corresponding …
