## Abstract ## Background and Objectives Detection of possible alterations of physiological parameters (e.g., pH and temperature), resulting from malignant transformation of initially healthy tissue, can be a powerful diagnostic tool for earlier cancer detection. Such variations can be observed by

The concept of energy transfer is examined, in view of its application to enhance pH sensitivity of fluorescent dyes. Two fluorescent pH sensitive indicators are chosen such that they have nearly the same pK, values and have maximum spectral overlap between the emission spectrum of the donor and the
A series of novel, pH-sensitive, endosomolytic polymers based on imidazole-grafted polyaspartamide were synthesized to characterize the pH-sensitive membrane fusion properties of red blood cells and their toxicity to L929 cells. All imidazole-containing polymers exhibited strong cationic characteris
## Abstract A series of pH‐sensitive polyaspartamide derivatives were prepared by grafting 1‐(3‐aminopyl)imidazole (API) and __O__‐(2‐aminoethyl)‐__O__′‐methylpolyethylene glycol (MPEG, __M__~w~:5000), as a pH sensitive moiety and hydrophilic group, respectively. The effect of the polymer compositi
