| Abstract | Well-defined water-soluble block copolymers poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(N-(2-hydroxypropyl) methacrylamide-co-N-methacryloylglycylglycine) (PEG-b-P(HPMA-co-MAGG)) with different compositions and narrow polydispersity were synthesized by reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. The in vivo blood clearance and biodistribution of copolymers with different compositions were studied in normal BALB/c mice. The results showed that the electronegative copolymers were rapidly eliminated from blood and tended to accumulate in the liver and spleen. However, the copolymers with neutral or a small amount of negative charges showed a prolonged circulation time and low non-specific organ uptake. Combined with the quantitative analysis of in vitro hepatocyte uptake, we conclude that this was due to the balance between (i) the electrostatic repulsion between the copolymer and the cell membrane and (ii) the tendency of macrophage-like cells to capture the negative charged copolymers. This work also revealed the significant roles of the PEG chain length, negative charge and molecular weight for the copolymers as anticancer drug carriers with prolonged circulation time and optimal biodistribution. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
