pH-responsive micelles and vesicles nanocapsules based on polypeptide diblock copolymers

The self-assembly of well-defined polypeptide-based diblock copolymers into micelles and vesicles is presented. The stimuli-responsive behavior of polypeptides to pH and ionic strength is used to produce stimuli-responsive nanoparticles with controlled size and shape. Results focusing on micelles an...
