Stimuli-responsive poly(ampholyte)s containing L-histidine residues: synthesis and protonation thermodynamics of methacrylic polymers in the free and in the cross-linked gel forms

Methacrylate-structured poly(ampholyte)s were synthesized in the homopolymer and copolymer forms starting from the N-methacryloyl-L-histidine (MHist) and the N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm). They were also obtained in the cross-linked (hydrogel) form, showing a close thermodynamic behaviour as that s...
