Adhesion behavior of rat lymphocytes to poly(ether)-poly(amino acid) block and graft copolymers

Block and graft copolymers consisting of poly(ether) and poly(amino acid) were synthesized, and adhesion behavior of rat lymphocytes to the surface of the film made from these copolymers was analyzed by the microsphere column method. Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and poly(benzyl L-glutamate) (PBLG) were used as poly(ether) and poly(amino acid), respectively. Adhesion behavior of lymphocytes was found to depend on the content and chain length of the components in these copolymers.
