Research Abstract |
In this study, we have successfully demonstrated the preparation of polymer brush capsules that had tailored hollow core sizes and capsule wall thicknesses. In addition, we utilized surface-initiated living radical polymerization technique for surface modification of particles with glycopolymers, and effects of graft shell thickness and compositions on lectin recognition of glycoparticles were investigated.
