Abstract

Poly(L-leucine)-block-poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(L-leucine) triblock copolymers were synthesized by a ring-opening polymerization of 𝛼-amino acid N-carboxyanhydride with amino-terminated PEG as an initiator. The chloroform solution of these peptide copolymers showed a thermo-sensitive sol-gel transition. The transition temperature varied as a function of the length of peptide segments. Additionally, we used these peptide copolymers to remove an endocrine disruptor such as bisphenol A from its aqueous solution. As a result, it became clear that the peptide copolymer gel used in this study could capture bisphenol A efficiently.

热敏肽共聚物凝胶在去除内分泌干扰物中的应用

以氨基端聚乙二醇为引发剂，通过𝛼-amino酸性n -羧基氢化物开环聚合，合成了聚l -亮氨酸-嵌段-聚乙二醇-嵌段-聚l -亮氨酸三嵌段共聚物。这些肽共聚物的氯仿溶液表现出热敏的溶胶-凝胶转变。转变温度随肽段长度的变化而变化。此外，我们使用这些肽共聚物从水溶液中去除内分泌干扰物，如双酚A。结果表明，本研究中使用的肽共聚物凝胶可以有效地捕获双酚a。
