Polylactide (PLA)-based biodegradable and biocompatible amphiphilic block copolymers bearing pendant amino acid residues were synthesized through a relatively easy and efficient way. The composition and structure of these copolymers were characterized by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and 1 H n
These polymers are synthesized by ring -opening polymerization of lactide and glycolide. In terms of nomenclature, the polymers are often termed polylactide, polyglycolide, and polylactideco -glycolide as this refl ects the monomer chemistry. However, the abbreviations PLA, PGA, and PLGA are more wi
