| Abstract | This paper describes a preliminary study on the synthesis of glycopeptide-based triblock copolymers and their aggregate behavior in water. Initially, a polypeptide-based triblock copolymer, poly(L-lysine)-b-poly(tetrahydrofuran)-b-poly(L-lysine) (PLL$_{30}$-b-PTHF-b-PLL$_{30}$), was synthesized by the ring-opening polymerization of ɛ-benzyloxycarbonyl-L-lysine N-carboxyanhydride using amine-terminated poly(tetrahydrofuran) as a macroinitiator in the fixed feed ratio, followed by the removal of the protecting group. The resulting copolymer then reacted with a varying amount of D-gluconolactone in the presence of dipropylethylamine to give the corresponding glycopeptide-based copolymers with high yields. This kind of amphiphilic sugar-containing triblock copolymer can self-assemble into nano-sized aggregates in water. The critical aggregation concentration (CAC) was determined in the range of around 10$^{−6}$ M by fluorescence measurement. The spherical morphologies in 100–150 nm scale were also evidenced by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) measurements. They show potential as carriers for drug controlled delivery and templates for biomimetic mineralization. |

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.
