Poly(3-hydroxyalkanoate)-derived amphiphilic graft copolymers for the design of polymersomes

Abstract

Amphiphilic graft copolymers composed of biocompatible bacterial poly(3-hydroxyalkanoate) and poly(ethylene glycol) have been synthesized by thiol–ene addition. They were demonstrated to form well-defined nanoscale vesicles in water by cryo-transmission electron microscopy.
