Inducing an LCST in hydrophilic polysaccharides via engineered macromolecular hydrophobicity

Abstract Thermoresponsive polysaccharide-based materials with tunable transition temperatures regulating phase-separated microdomains offer substantial opportunities in tissue engineering and biomedical applications. To develop novel synthetic thermoresponsive polysaccharides, we employed versatile...
