## Abstract Modification of dextrin by __tert__βbutylperoxy methanol or its acylation with cyclic anhydride containing a peroxide group resulted in macroβinitiators with randomly located peroxide fragments in the polysaccharide. When dextran was oxidized with iodic acid, dialdehydedextran was obta
The review summarizes recent progress in the development of enzymatically degradable polymers. Such polymers are based on amino acids, oligopeptides, oligosaccharides and synthetic oligomers. An enzymatically degradable bond can be located either in a side chain or in the main backbone of the polyme
## Abstract Two types of biodegradable polyurethanes (PUs) were synthesized from methylene diβ__p__βphenylβdiisocyanate (MDI), polycaprolactone diol (PCLβdiol), and chain extenders of either butanediol (BD) or 2,2β²β(methylimino)diethanol (MIDE). The effects of two types of chain extenders on the de
