Abstract
The use of disulfide block copolymers for an intracellular drug delivery system was investigated. Novel [poly(ethyleneglycol)-poly(propylenesulfide)] block copolymers, which are sensitive to a reducing environment, were synthesized for the experiments. In two separate Schlenck tubes, two reactions were started at a suitable time. The results confirm that the newly formed block copolymers can be used to create drug delivery systems which respond to changes in the reductive state of their environment.
