Reactive thermoresponsive copolymer scaffolds.
Thermoresponsive copolymer scaffolds containing reactive aldehyde functions were prepared and a selection of organic residues conjugated to these copolymer scaffolds through oxime/hydrazone formation. The conjugation of hydrophobic residues affords copolymers whose lower solution critical temperatures are in most cases higher than that of the parent copolymer scaffold.
