Polymersomes as a potential tool in nuclear medicine

Amphiphilic di-block copolymers composed of poly(ethylene oxide-b-butadiene), abbreviated PEO-PB can self-assemble into polymer vesicles (polymersomes) when placed in aqueous solution, provided that the ratio of hydrophilic block to the total molecular mass is between 25 % and 45 %. These vesicles consist of an aqueous cavity surrounded by a...
