Published in 2025 at "Macromolecular Rapid Communications"

DOI: 10.1002/marc.202500422

Abstract: The need for alternative hydrophilic polymers to polyethylene glycol (PEG) has intensified due to increasing concerns about immunogenicity and hypersensitivity reactions. In this work, we report the synthesis of well‐defined heterotelechelic poly‐N‐ethylglycine (pNEtGly) via acid‐catalyzed… read more here.
