Abstract:
The homopolymer of 2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline (iPrOx) and iPrOx copolymers are extensively studied in recent years, and the interest on them is still growing. Poly(2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline) (PiPrOx), known as thermoresponsive pseudopeptide, exhibits a phase transition in aqueous solution at a temperature near human body temperature and is nontoxic to many cell lines. These facts make this polymer potentially attractive for many bioapplications. PiPrOx is similar in chemical structure to poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and is considered as the alternative to this so-called “gold standard” thermoresponsive polymer, however significant differences in properties of these two polymers are worth attention.
