π-π-Stacked Poly(ε-caprolactone)-<i>b</i>-poly(ethylene glycol) Micelles Loaded with a Photosensitizer for Photodynamic Therapy

To improve the in vivo stability of poly(ε-caprolactone)-<i>b</i>-poly(ethylene glycol) (PCL-PEG)-based micelles and cargo retention by π-π stacking interactions, pendant aromatic rings were introduced by copolymerization of ε-caprolactone with benzyl 5-methyl-2-oxo-1,3-dioxane-5-carboxy...
